Body work looks a bit like it's full of filler.

But that was an aftermarket conversion based on one of the trim specs listed.

You learn something everyday. I've owned several 4 doors back in the day, I quess it was more popular, but I always like the look of the 2 door.

Guy who used to do all my MOT's on my Saab's and Sunbeam-Lotus back in the 1990's and early 2000's, used to work at Jeff Uren's, building the Savages in the late 60's early 70's.
He still used to work on Savage's for a number of owners up until he retired about 5-6 years ago.
