The body is an extremely tough monocoque design (mini subframe mounted to front, Midas beam axle to rear) Recent new front and rear bumpers (white) courtesy of Charlie Dodd (note the driving lamps are currently for show but the lamps are fully usable should the successful bidder wish to wire these) The original mirrors and petrol cap (hard to find) are present The bonnet has a Midas front quick release pivot for quick bonnet removal (giving excellent engine accessibility) INTERIOR:
The dashboard, headlining, rear wheelarch covers and door inserts are original Midas durable black moulded items (leather crinkle finish) - these set this car significantly apart from other kit cars. The car has Cobra reclining seats (these are fixed in place to increase headroom - I am six foot two and a half - although drivers side adjuster is included in the sale) The original rear seat folding wooden back is in place (see pictures of this up and down) but no seat cushion is not present Original large alloy Spare Wheel clamping nut (hard to get hold of) - the cover looks creased in the photo because it has just come out of a cupboard.
