Yeah, I was just about to post - as for it looking better, not so sure - it didnt have the vinyl roof back then, and it's not a good look!Chris_C wrote:Thats a heck of a lot better than it used to look... that was at a BKV 5 ish years ago. I'll have a photo somewhere, if not I imagine Steve has. Had 3 small fog lamps each side same at the rear under the bumper from memory.

Re: Vinyl roof
From my 1970's memories a vinyl roof goes with furry dice, two fog lights used as extra brake lights in the rear window, jacked up rear suspension and a pretty poor power to weight ratio with lots of exhaust noise 
I think whats wrong with the vinyl is that it should extend down the rear window posts for that capri/cortina look!
