hey buddy, always figured you must have done those custom front guards on your vert yourself, but noticed this on ebay. were these offered by a custom shop or something?

Sorry, can't say i like those guards at all! And the hood emblem! And those wheel covers!
But i guess those would be easy to correct.. then it would be a nice car!

i guess the guy wanted an MG.
