Looks like a nice car for the money from the pics.
I'm surprised this hasn't been snapped up already.

And its a UK car! :shock: I asked him a few days ago and was expecting to be told that it being an SA import was the only thing he forgot to mention! :lol:


Shame about the Swedish tailights but apart from that it looks about right for a 59/60 crossover model!

Why Swedish taillights? Aren't these the normal ones but just placed a little too high?

Did'nt know that, thought they were unchanged until 61 when they changed to larger housing with indicators.
