These are pictures of the GT before I owned it, they seem to have been taken when it was resprayed yellow. Some are fairly bad quality as most are scans of polaroid photos and some were so dark that I have had to enhance them so you can see anything! I have no firm idea of the date of these photos except that two of the later ones are labeled '87. All the comments here are all my own, none were already with the pictures - i've no idea how long there was between each of these photos or even if they are in the correct order.

Update: Further reading of our past MoT documents suggests that the yellow paint went on around '95-'98, later than we'd first thought.

 

Rear

Old photo of the rear of the car, looks like the roof was a lighter colour and that part was already deseamed. There is also a rear nudge bar.

Four headlamp grill already fitted and there is a front nudge bar. There is also an unknown boy in the photo that I only noticed when i'd scanned it in, spooky!
