The correct shape of the wing lips is quite angular and protruding as one can see from various brochures, also my right front wing after it was stripped, had enough of the original shape left to show us what the original shape should be. Unfortunately, after a lot of patching, it gets covered with filler and the original shape disappears and the lip gets rounder, more slopping and less pro-eminent. In case of CF 33 I can't tell for sure how it was fixed. Maybe it was done right and the body man not having another car to compare it with guessed on the correct shape, which would be fine if done properly and on all four corners. But after seeing my car, I would be extra cautious before spending big money onto buying this one. As far as the instrument panel goes, I would give a lot to go back to the earlier one which is so much more pleasing to the eyes. Maybe this car suffered a fire under the dash which required a replacement! It may be documented with the AC Club if it was done by the factory. By the way, with the exception of the speedo and tach, the gauges are the original mechanical ones re-bezeled. Which means the wiring has not been updated as the later models have electrical gauges. At one point as a matter of fact, I was thinking about replacing the instrument cluster with the earlier one, using my black bezel gauges and a larger tach and speedo. But although very pleasing to the eyes, it would probably be sacrilegious to purists! The clock would remain where it is and the rest of the dash panel would remain the same. I have compared with Jeffrey 's car and it would be an easy swap!
I may be going to far!
