One for me too. Love it. And it looks cheap at £6500 if I do the maths. Oh hang on I forgot, its got to get to the UK. Never mind. Someone will get a really interesting little car.

Looks seriously cool - loving the MGB air vent on the scuttle. Not sure about the MkX Jaguar leeper on the bonnet though.

It's the 'TC' badge on the boot that's drawing you in Rich, it must be the sister car to yours :D

Good way to bling up some D1's,or are they GKN's ? The way the rest has been executed maybe the spinners extend out ... ;)

This car has been for sale on TradeMe for around year or more, the price is dropping. The louvres were a popular accessory here and the side chrome is a popular Aussie thing from the 60's.

I'm a bit disapointed there is no checker tape anywhere.

Is that a Spriget air filter sysytem?

It must weigh as much as a new mini!!

I like it, think it is a period as you could possibly get.

The only thing it lacks is a hatchback would have went well with all the other mod's

The airfilter arrangement is, I think, from a Riley 1300.

Dont know if they can be called "dials" ? but SMITHS did a Oil check, fasten seatbelts, outdoor temp,
all as 52mm "gauges" in the same series.
