    The dip on the engine bay crossmember is smaller, which is a good giveaway. It'll have drip rails, different gutter corners, hole in the rear seat, round tunnel with the mk1 style starter hump, ashtrays in the rear bins and so forth. If it has all these, its probably genuine.

    It had most of the main stuff...been off the toad since '86...very honest little car but has had some not very good repairs...i wanted to do bare minimum and use it...still tempted but what would you pay? It is missing a rear valance...definately needs a doorstep and loeer quarter...sills seem solid but have no vents and dont look like oversills that i have ever seen? Perhaps home made jobbies?
