Looks mint! Wish mine was in as good condition as yours! Usually they dont look good without spots but yours just looks right without em! Is that black plastic bit (sorry dunno the name lol) by the number plate off a mk2? I'll try and post some pics of mine but its pretty much standard.

Writing on behalf of Mark who owns the car as he doesn't get on the Net much.

Mk1 Orion Boy - that panel is indeed of a mk2 Ghia and fitted straight on and makes a big difference.
