No side markers, yeah, no belt trim. Were they never mounted or removed during a paint job? Dave V should know. Yes, great find. More photos, interior, under hood, etc.
Thanks, Steve

Fortunately have all the trim, but will be installing them with double sided tape coz the original latches are gone.

also, a diesel engine was put on the car by my good friend the previous owner so some changes have been made to the engine mountings which saddens me that i cant straight bolt on the M30 i have coming.

so far the parts i will be needing are: radiator, rear back headrest, tachometer, set of key and locks.

I think I will have a bigger list of parts needed

once my engine arrives and installation begins

I believe the clips for the belt trim are available. If the holes are still there or easily opened that might be the way to go. Others on this board can comment on using double sided tape. Looks like a great project. Keep the photos coming.
