Andrew, I picked up your email and responded this morning. Unfortunately, I can't be of any help as mine is a North American version with the wet sump engine. Barry | ||

Barry... I sent you a "private" email, but I never know if those get anywhere. I'm assuming yours is a dry-sump car. Would you mind taking detailed pics of your oil cooler? Mine's a bastardized setup and I'd like to see orig. Thanx, and best regards. Andy | ||

The flares were not standard on fiberglass cars. Here's mine:  The lower rear panels were fiberglass on the early steel cars. I agree with Mike Charness that your flares were probably hand-done. Where I have "sandblasting" on my car, the deeper coat is yellow. I think those flares look nice too. Barry | ||

Andy... they're not "standard" on fiberglass cars... I have 2. Don't know what to make of them, I've never seen that... but I agree, I like them too. Best regards, Andy | ||

Mine's a 78 and it does not have them. I'll check around. I like them a lot actually. | ||

The car is a '77 steel body and the front flares are steel. The rears are fibreglass and they appear to be factory (red gelcoat where they have been "sandblasted" by road grit). | ||

Andy, It that a glass car? I think the glass cars came with them. | ||

Bondo or fiberglass? They were probably hand done and built up rather than bolt-ons if that's a steel-bodied car. | ||

Look specifically below the belt line and behind each wheel arch. I am wondering what the origin of these might have been. Thanks for any info.  |
