A standard brand new parcel shelf went for £600 on eBay not long ago. And an original gear knob £250.

That tells you how expensive these are to restore!

I need an original gear knob might just sell the house.

 

[Paul Mitch 1986]

Would keep it and love it just how it is . Spoiler looks boss to me mate very 90's . Going to turn heads no mater what as it a 5.

When I was following the recovery truck home they was a few people pointing at it an one lad took a photo, couldn't tell if they liked it or was laughing at it haha.

No mate need a standard one

Hopefully you can source a pattern part mate, no doubt an original would be outrageous cost.
Maybe keep it like the spoiler? Could help with heat soak/power etc?

 

[Paul Mitch 1986]

Looking pretty respectable after a good polish

This looks awesome! but why does a van need a roof box?

I reckon this needs updating. Car Sat for a while whilst I was collecting parts an saved up lot of ups and down to get it where it is but well worth it. Car was sent to overboost where he worked his magic hope you like.

[Clio_fool]

Wow. When I saw this had been updated I expected to see "SOLD"! Good on you for going balls deep and spending big on it. I bet its a great drive now. Are you keeping the body kit on it or hunting for original bumpers and spoiler?

 

[Daz...]

That’s one hell of a shopping list!

Fair play for going all in on this one ??
