its a racing green 2 door saloon. built in 1972 feb. it has the rubber carpets and is very basic in terms of trims etc. no chrome except for the bumpers and grill.

it has a zenith carb not a stromberg.

thats about all i know !

its the base model. As basic as they come but just as fun to thrash around.

Temp guage eh... - big improvement on mine which is just a space where it should be and the Vauxhall Griffin.

Same switches - that's normal (at least on the early ones).
