I had a Ford Cortina Mk11, it was saluki bronze metalic, the paint used to flake off leaving good grey primer underneath. One point , I could have cold air from the facia vents and warm air on my feet, you have to have a very expensive car with two layer climate control to get that now.
My Lancia Beta Coupe had a bonnet release on both sides, oil level gauge as with as oil pressure and temperature. Believe it on not it had very little rust and was very reliable, had it for three years, got it for �360, 6 years old 23000 miles on the clock 2 owners. solt it for nearly what I payed for it.
