ES100 tires less than 200 mls. $650.00.
Almost new Ford T9 5-speed. $450.00.
Rear spoiler fibreglass $200.00.
Black carpet set almost new $200.00.
Original pedal box & modified 
box for dual brake pedals. $150.00.
Various dashes $50.00.
Recovered dash top $50.00.
Set of Spax shocks rear has
original springs $125.00.
Heater vents and pipes $25.00.
boot hinges $10.00.
2 New front bumpers & 2 
originals. $100.00
Recovered underdash panel $25.00.
