I remember first seeing it like that

, although think it had a road runner type strobe stripe up the sail /C pillar , saying 440 R/T or I could be getting mixed up with something else :oops: normaly happens ,
in early 89 , saw it parked up the side of a house , up in wigmore kent , was out in the charger at the time ,pure fluke i was going to the petrol station about 200 yards further down the road :lol: could not believe what I had seen , :shock: went past & nailed the gas a couple of times , but no one came out , did not like to knock on door and ask about the car , would not like it if it was me & would think it out of order cold calling .
caught up with the owner at hickstead 89 , nice bloke ! had a bit of a conflab on the work he was doing to it & stuff , cant remember the guys name
before that think it was fore sale in late 88 over in west draton wayish

this is how the car looked in 1990 , hickstead , just after a repaint over the winter & stuff

saw it a few times in 90s & 2000 localish to me , & at norhweald , had a real nasty sounding 383 in it with a forsale sign on it , believe it went up north then
