Likewise, especially as I'm building one myself!  :daumenhoch:

Are you going for factory-spec or your own?

With such a late date of manufacture, it wouldn't have reached the shops until '83, so for all intents and purposes I'd say it's an '83 model.

Good luck with the build!!  Subscribed :)

insectbones:
Might be worth doing an OA bath before going down the re-chroming route, depends on how fooked the chrome is  ???

You'll be surprised what can be brought back to health with a bath and a good polish with Peek.

There are some good threads on here about the process and results  :daumenhoch:

barrell356:

in terms of the bath , if i fill a clean wheelie bin and put it in will that do it ? and how long should it be in there for ?
