Thank's Robert, Fingers crossed I will get him today. The old owner put him through a MOT which he failed. Can't really complain as I am getting new discs and pads before I get him. You still heading to the show in Grantown? I will have him up there with the Stang.

Can anyone advise what you use to wash the convertable roof??? I had noticed a little bit mould on it (it has been sitting for a year).

He's here!!! He's here!!!! Already had a wash and just finished polishing him.

Has a few swirl marks but in really good nick. It still has the Alfa radio/cassette installed. Is it a big job to remove and replace? Looks slightly bigger than a normal stereo.

I hope so, but as usual I will not be certain until just before.

Standard 1-DIN unit with an oversize surround to fill the panel.
They look fine when replaced with a standard-sized unit as long as the one you choose blends with the dash ok.
