seen it advertised before along with other crap from this guy, and its a mess

but on a seriour note , i'm suer not all hartge cars cam with the hartge rocker cover. maybe from new they were but not all were built as "new"

I know of 2 h27's with out it, both were built by birds and rocker covers were nolonger available when conversion was done

also you cant say a car i a hartge converted if it has the rocker cover, its not the correct way off telling if its genuine!! look at the history and trce previous owners if at all possible!

it could have had a conversion done by birds to say just the sports suspension in which case it wouldnt have a hartge cover as the engine wouldnt have been touched.

I only looked at the ad today so dont know if he was selling it as hartge engined or not.

Check birds website & go toi the E30 section to see the options available.
