Mk2 Rear Light Lens & Wheel Centre Caps req

Post by retrocool73 »

I need a rear light lens (right hand side) and some of the chrome wheel centre caps for my mk2 if anyone can assist?
It's an March 85 GL - suprisingly well equiped. Is it unusual to have electric windows, 'plush' (GLE-style) velour seats and all the gauges (aparts from a rev counter of course) on a 1.4 GL mk2? Or is a dealer special edition (hence the boot spoiler)?

There seems to be a fair few of these B plate'd GL's like that mate, Petavius' Samson was the same, though without the boot spoiler, electric windows and gauges, and I've seen a couple at scrappies too!

Afraid I can't help with your wants though.

Yeah, it has the opening rear quarter windows (another extra?)
What I need for the wheels are the actual small centre caps that cover the hub - I'll take a photo of one tomorrow

It's a special edition afaik, last of the line Mk2's... GL's but with a few extras.

My 82 DL had opening rear windows, I assume thats just standard GL kit... looks like a nice car though! How many 300's do you have now!?

6 300's at the mo, there may well be a 7th on the way :roll:
The mk2 is very good in places, not so good in others - welding required to the underside behind the rear wheels close to the back of the wheel arch - they also needs replacing on both sides. Sills good, but needs a passenger door skin, pair of wings and a front valance, and there's a bit of rust on the windscreen scuttle close to the rh wiper which needs attention before it developes into a hole. It would look a lot better with the wheels repainted though and the missing hubcaps, and obviously I need to remedy that broken back indicator to prevent unwanted attention from the gestapo...
Drives well, though I've a feeling it's imediate destiny is dry storage followed by a mini-resto in a year or two.... the main fun will be had this year in the grey restored 1.4 & the red 360 - and if I can get the driver's door & paint sorted for a reasonable price, maybe the black 360 too. Oh yes and maybe Vo no.7 too :wink:

Excellent... how much sir?

BTW one feature the mk2 has that mk3's don't - which I don't understand at all - is the painted petrol cap
