Hi, yes the real deal. It was imported into the US by Peter Gregg. There were another 2 or possible 3 imported but this was the first one and fitted with VW air conditioning which meant leaving out the space save spare to fit the condensing unit. The only change George has made is 7" Fuchs and not the factory fitted 6"

It's curious that everything would be original apart from the wheels.

Maybe an RS or RSR flare welded on?
