Looks to me like a '89/'90 Flame Red with brake servo removed and a dash & badges change. The rocker cover must be original, 'cause it's BMC green :lol:

Unless they read this thread too???

Does make you wonder!!! I see the description is now very basic now. I wonder if they withdrew when they saw it in the flesh?
