Hello from Hertfordshire UK
After many years looking for a Mk 1 3.4 in the UK (but all very rusty) I found a solid car in Canada with apparently 57k miles from new; manual/overdrive in British Racing Green with cinamon interior. The car still has its original paint with various touch up's here and there. Some of the paint has worn away down to the undercoat.
My original intention was to nut and bolt restore the car, but with a solid body I'm now contemplating leaving the paint work but restore it mechanically throughout along with the interior so I can get to use the car and not become too precious with worrying about an expensive paint job.
