and big writing in caps-lock. I hate it when people do that.

You can clearly see the poor position of the gearlever and handbrake, I think GTM just left them in the same relative positions on the floorpan but didn't factor in the fact that the seat would be further back and mounted lower down.

HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! who thought that rear spoiler would actually look good. I know beauty's in the eye of the beholder but the previous owner must have thought susan boyle is a looker. Agree with the comment about the handbrake and gear lever position, they're ridiculously too far forward

I quite like that wing :o It's a Pikes peak racing Midas ;) Cortez = a Mark Bailey car I'm guessing? what was the quality like on them?

Ugly it may be but it sold for £880 to a last minute bidder. Has the twin cam engine and will go very well. All it needs is a chain saw to the spoiler and a decent retrim inside.

With a black carpet, and a good clean - plus take of that spoiler, I think this would make a nice car!
The interior seats / dash / doorcards seem to have been nicely recovered in red vinyl, just the wrong engine for me!

edit; just remembered it's got a face only a mother could love, but i'm sure its fun :D
