It need a bit of tlc where its been left in a garage for 12 years, manly the paint side of things, so dont exspect it to be mint in the pictures lol, it has some paint flake on one of the arch's and some old repairs that the old boy tryed to do his self that will have to be redone at some point. Ill see if i can get time to get the pictures tomorrow.

The 323 I notice even has the original stripe kit fitted as well as HLWW. :cool:
It would be best to keep it OE and not f** it up as early chromies are getting few and far between. :eek:
The only parts I find unavailable are a few trim bits and seat coverings.

Dump the rotten 325 and keep the 323. The Jeremy Walton book suggests that only c4000 323 were sold in the UK while over 25k 325 were sold, making the 325 as common as muck. :duck:

Looks good - shouldn't take too much to sort although the hole in the front NS sill may be a problem.

It is not as old as some as yours has side vents in the boot. The real early ones don't. My mate has a May 83 model and his does whereas mine which is Dec 82 doesn't.

It has the factory fit front speakers and the rears - well what can I say.... :mad:

It has been stored well until now with it still having the yellow passivate on the throttle bracket and linkage as well as the fuel pressure regulator.

When I saw it on fleabay i ddn't realise it was an auto - it matches The diddlers, which is a 320 auto.

Keep it std I say :thumb: :thumb:
