Mine are both B1s but one is a facelift so it looks more like a Typ81 (is this making sense)? You can get B1s with round headlights (so the first edition) right up to 1977 in the UK. Mine is an R reg.

If I let one go I know I would regret it, as its always worth having a spares car. Doors, bootlid interior parts etc are all the same. However, when I finally get going and decide which one I want to finish, then I'm more than happy to supply parts from the broken one.

My dream is to amass a huge haul of early 80 parts and supply the whole of Europe - but as usual, space is a problem.

There is a kiddie looking to sell his great uncle's Mk1 at the moment - think its for sale on here. I registered my interest for it in its current state (no MOT no repairs etc) for a fair price - not wanting to rip anyone off. I'm certainly not going near it when the inevitable scene tax is added. Bits are so hard to find for these, that selling a polished turd for £1k just isn't fair on whoever buys it.
