Those B post finishers come from Ital SLXs - often have to strip off the black paint first.I only have 1, the 2nd got lost somehow....
Marinas dont come smarter than black tulip with red interior IMHO

and Mk2 bumpers - thats the way I have customized my Mk1 TC saloon too!

Looks great Jim, all those little bits make the job, like the tailpipe and spots, , have to agree with XER about Black Tulip and red trim, ........only thing is Doris is not black tulip!!!, she is in fact Metropolitan Police Blue, one of only three that colour that i know of

, hopefully she will be basking in the sun at calbourne later in the month. 8)

Looks like dads been busy Jim, look at all that walnut

lovely!!, in case anyone is curious as to why the seats look like new again, it is because i sprayed them over with a couple of coats of vinylkote, colour matched paint, if you have never used this stuff give it a go it is bl**dy marvellous stuff, i have been using it for years and it really can make tired old seats look like new
