Just thought i'd mention I'm building a genuine XB GS 351 Coupe and it will be for sale in aproxamatly 2-3 months but can be bought at any stage. At the moment it is in the panel shop in bear metal as a rolling shell getting the minor rust problems fixed with steel and will be painted in it's original 'U' code "burt orange" with the GS stripes put back on in about 1 week from now.The interior is in the trimers now and will be getting reupholstered back to the original "C2" code from " Chamios with (brown) cloth inserts also in a week or two. The car is a factory K coded 351 but as of yet I have not located the original engine... If i can't find it, it will have a 351 2v rebuilt for the car and C4 auto as it came out of the factory with. It also has a disk brake 9 inch rear, factory air and all GS options. I'm building this car as an inthusist as it is too good of a car to see it get turned into a hybrid. Everything on the car is getting replaced or reconditioned and will be better than new and I'm building this coupe rite, it will have all new or recoed standard interior, factory styling under the bonnet,and in the boot with all new brakes and rotors, every bushing and rubber,new exhust and resprayed undercarage... the list of parts is to extensive to mention but photo's and all reciepts will obviously be documented. If a car of this standard is what your seriously looking for I can be contacted by e-mail... [email protected] Please only sirious inquires and be preparded to pay approxamatly 30k for the finished car. Cheers, Ben.
