Originally a LHD US export car. Registered 917XIG (the original California blue plate comes with the car). The car was purchased from the second owner in Santa Barbara where it lived from 1971 to 1995. The third owner repatriated it back to the UK where it was restored. There is a large history file with many invoices and the original owners handbook. It has the correct period Motorola push button radio converted to FM and uprated FLY speakers.
