And this time also some of the bits that are not so good ... Signs of previous repairs to the lower front wings ... Standard rust patch where inner wing and front bulkhead meet ... Butchered boot area, missing the spare wheel well ... Fairly decent interior considering it's 37 years old ... Engine bay ... And the shell that I am very much tempted to use for the restoration ... But first I'll get these refurbished for the DHC ... Love the wheels 👍🏻👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Looks like VW-Porsche 60601 Signal Orange L20E) It's a uni colour based on Topaz Orange but brighter. It is actually a pretty close match to RAL 2000 (yellow orange) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
