Only rust is in the front of the front guards. I'm planning on tidying up the paint, reconditioning the engine, throwing some dellortos on the 3k, and getting the interior back to new. Just need a new dash and the back seat restitched on the inside. I'm trying to keep it as stock as possible, it's quite the collectors item in the condition it's in.

Nice find, indeed.

Is it a 4 or 5 speed?

Lucas' old car.... get onto the rust in those front guards is all I can say.

Triumph steel wheels ftw.

And don't bother looking for a replacement dash, they all split. Probably easier just to get yours repaired.

It is indeed. I'm getting it sorted in the next week or two.

There's a company in the US that does brand new ones for about $450 inc shipping.

RHD though?

by **Lloyd** » Sun Apr 22, 2012 3:40 pm

Dash pad should be the same in either case?

Oh yeah, they dont have a raised bit over the dash cluster do they?

For that price could you not get a baby seal fur recover of the one you have?

It's cracked all the way through

The dash pads fit both rhd and lhd, they're the same the whole way across.

Looks very nice. I destroyed a number in that colour when we rallied these in the 70's & 80's.
Unless you're throwing a camshaft and an exhaust at it I'd be leaving the dellortos in the cupboard.
