The car was reshelled by BBR not GGR and its now built on a 89 spec motorsport shell

I saw the original shell and it only had a minor frontal impact, BBR even repaired it and had it in their workshops so its still out there somewhere.

It was on ebay about 3 or 4 years ago still with the standard 3dr bumper that BBR fitted as they could not locate a 500 one at the time of the reshell.

The only reason it was reshelled was the original Jersey based owner did not want a repaired car and preferred a brand new shell to be used instead

Theres a resto thread of the car on here somewhere from a couple of years ago
