I think the side mirror is the only item that is not correct which is an easy fix Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Hi Rod - this is my car for sale. It's 229 and was C23 (Aus DR) configured for delivery to PCGB, shipped in June 75 and delivered in late June that year to my father. It has the early style manual driver flag mirror which is original. According to Ryan's Turbo 3.0 there was three versions of the mirror for PCGB cars (excluding the Japan and chrome orders)- the durant mirror until the factory ran out of them Q2-3 '75, the manual flag mirror for rest of '75 and other region cars and the electric mirror from '76 onwards. However I have noticed something interesting - This car sat in the middle of that change - M423 maybe therefore meant a durant until they ran out of stock and then a manual flag for the rest of '75 PCGB cars - however a C23 car (even being delivered via PCGB) superseded the durant and received the manual flag mirror while they might have had some durant mirrors remaining. So this might have been an unusual situation where the 228 car (normal UK RHD Blue Tartan) might have received a Durant and the 229 car (tourist delivery via PCGB was C23 and received the manual flag even though they were being built next to each other. Still trying to figure this out and it is not explicit in Ryan's book but I am interpolating his information.
I'm two years into my restoration and appreciate the wealth of information that I've found in this thread! I've put together a website of the process so far...still have a long way to go! Feedback on the restoration or the site is always welcome - www.chassis106.com
Mostly original 1977 in PTS "Park Avenue Gray". It has a few mods including a period correct aftermarket Porsche MOMO steering wheel, Euro rear bumpers, and Euro short headlamp rings. I'm slowly getting it back to original again having just completed refurbishing the original steering wheel but have not yet installed it.
