Did they put metal trim in facelift doors ?
« on: 05 November 2007, 15:27:22 »

Greetings,
On the search for a new wing mirror, and found this on Ebay. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=190168807419&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=009 I phoned him up and he said its off a '51, but it doesn't look the same as mine. Anyone know if they put metal trim strips on the doors of facelifts ?

Hi EP,
thanks for that, yes the door surround looks curved whereas mine is flat. He insists its a '51 tho !. Ah well, back to the search.

Maybe it was an early model that has been lying around for a couple of years before registration. Thanks EP for the tip, unfortunately he has sold out. He was very respectable on price, he wanted £30 plus VAT plus £10 post. Another bloke of Ebay wants £60 plus £10 post  :-X :-X :-X
