Hi,

Not sure about those front lights [?] Fair amount of work to get them to fit though so fair play to who ever done them, would I though, don't think so.

Thanks for posting, always good to see cars and shows from around the globe [8D]

Cheers John

Didn't Leyland do something similar on Rally cars, borrowing the lights from a Vauxhall Chevette?

Hi,

Mike Gibbon of F.G.R ( Funky Gibbon Rallying ) use to rally a TR7 V8 with Chevette headlights in it years ago and also supplied a kit to fit them, got his catalogue somewhere will put a picture up if I can find it.

Preferred this version of non pop up headlights myself ( still much rather have pop up myself though ) -
