Hey team. Thought I would show you all my new runabout that I got a 2ish months ago.

Got it completely factory. Has done a genuine 50,000miles, spent plenty of time in storage. Interior is wicked. Pretty much perfect condition. Exterior is pretty good, a few bumps and scratches but pretty flipping sweet for 48 years old!

Anyway, I'll let pics do the talking.

LOVE this!!! My 410 has a long way to go, but this has given me the inspiration needed! ;)

What are you doing with the wheels / hubcaps it came with?

Thanks fellas. Wheels are 13s, I'm pretty pumped on how good they came up!
Would love to take it to nationals but it'll probably be gone by then!

Hey guys,

New to here.. Anyway, a bit of a sad story I'm afraid. I ended up buying this car and enjoyed it every moment I had it. But..... One night, driving along in a storm a tree landed on me while I was driving. It ruined the boot, rh tail light, bonnet, front right quarter, few dings in the roof, smashed windscreen, bent light bezel on the right hand side the list goes on.. Ive managed to find a bonnet and windscreen so far, and any help to find more parts, primarily frh quarter, boot and rh tail light would be very much appreciated. To make things worse insurance wouldnt cover me as I was third party and this is an 'act of god'..
