Did you see the 245 a friend of mine has taken on rescueing? I've spent the last 12 months trying not to myself, but she's an 81 MY so has flathood and eggcrate as standard. Lovely looking thing.. in some kind of brown/pink cross!

You will need a early rear panel and wings to fit it.

Not that early Dai, it's come off an 84. It's the same as the touring car. Not the early 140 type.classicswede wrote:340GLT wrote:Just sourced early flat bootlid with lock and key...

Fantastic thread this as there are only references to Model Years and none of this nonsense about "mk" (reserve that sort of talk for Dagenham Dustbins and other stuff they couldn't be bothered improving annually)
