Title: YYC 329X - Where is it now...?
Post by: kev131 on March 20, 2008, 10:14:19 PM
A fairly rough car at the time of the photo - Fairly sure it's a Series 2 Super with a Sport grill - although the side rubbing strips are missing. Maybe a "window surround expert" (not me) can answer categorically!? ;D

Struggling to remember where I found this car - Think it might have been Exeter c early 90s but cant be sure.

That one barks at you! Interesting colour though.

Ha ha Dave - Ya it looks like it should be on a short stout chain guarding a breakers yard!! ;D

I assume by 'window surround expert' you mean me Kev ::) ::) :D

It's certainly got a Series 2 Supermirafiori front bumper - badly painted, but looking at the window surrounds (which is like reading tea leafs!) it looks like the donor car was a series 2 CL rather than a Super - not 'chromed' all the way round on this car as they would be on a Super. Definitely series 2 external door mirrors though.

I don't like the colour at all, and as Dave says, it really barks this one!!

Good morning Si.

Yes I meant YOU as the "window surround expert"! Glad the subtlety wasn't lost on you...!? ;D ;)
