Hi everyone,

The car on eBay is definitely a post 1980 model, most of which were V8s. The giveaway is the lack of bonnet clips, which were superseded by a cable-operated locking mechanism similar to a pair of hood releases, and the design of the front of the bonnet is definitely from a later model. If this car has a 4 cylinder engine, it was probably a kit, though the bulge on the bonnet was usually to accommodate a V6 or V8. The vendor obviously knows very little about the marque and may have registered it as a 1967 to get it into the country.

It'll be interesting to see what it goes for. It's in such poor condition, I'd be surprised if it sells for more than a few thousand dollars. What a shame it was allowed to deteriorate so far.

Regards,
