Yep it's a coin tray. Bit of a pointless purchase but it looks kinda cool.

That is a new(ish) gearknob, Temp measure until I get the leather one sorted, But still better than the pointlessly tall one I had before.

Yes mate. Was the same car I got the digital clock from in my FS thread. Had a spare bottletop in the boot too but was completely knackered, think it'd had a car dropped on the roof and the A-pillars were crushed!

That's a shame, I would love to see a chromie in a scrappy near me, so many bits I would rob it of.

Y-reg =1983?

The early (pre 9-83) had this rpm instrument as an option. There are more interesting differences at an pre 9-83 car.

You probably don't have any pictures of this Baur?

I'm bit too much of an oem lover to go for those wheels. :o:

I would like a 40mm drop some day, but there is various other more important things to come before then. :D

Impressive photoshop though. 8)

Nah I don't like it, the silver will look good against the chrome. :D Plus it would be the only non oem lookign thing on the car, which I don't really want to step away from.

Ahh the man behind it all, your opinion is most appreciated. :wink:

Sweep on the country roads my car spends its life on it just wouldn't be practical that low.

Why thanks you barry, I rather like your red chromie though. :drool:
