That's awesome Matt, thank you for the pics.

That is probably just after the tranny rebuilt by Mr. Snowball before selling it to Andy.
I have info from the past 3 owners but nothing before 2001. And it shows 16 previous owners and in the UK for a long time, what happened with those 13 people? :-k :) :)

I bought it from a guy in Harold hill, must of been circa 2000. The guy was more into his chevy, so sold it. The reason for the grey primer was it was covered in stickers...Daffy Duck on the door amongst others and when we pulled them off the paint came off.

I think I might have the original ad for it in American classic magazine, I will check next time I am down my mums.

I blew the gearbox up on it and nursed it into my Mums garage where is stayed for 8+ years and then sold it to Matt.

It will be awesome to have the original ad Bryan.

You have to pop in to visit the car.:)

Would be good to find pics of the car in its original Dark Gold Metallic paint with vinyl roof, but haven't had any luck so far. The original paint can still be found in a few places, such as behind the door panels!

Just adding this AD to this thread. From a 2000 magazine before Bryan buying her.
