And ‘screwdrivered’ ignition barrel 😁!, definitely a sign of the times in the 80’s

Mine looked a bit like that when my brother bought it years ago , red frame , white wheels and all lol . Took me ages and a small fortune in Nitromors to get the Dulux Gloss off the wheels . I still have the fibreglass bellypan and headlight fairing somewhere .

Ah 80's LC's, a time of questionable taste I remember it well.  |

Love it! I hope someone sympathetically restores it as it is, ugly and 80s... or does something else. Either way they need to do quite a bit of work before they run it again. That front mudguard cage is a classic, not seen one for ages. Useless but also cool  Also.. the whole workshop has a good 80s vibe as well with the girlie calendars etc. lol |

Many classic 80's "improvements" on that one, proper time capsule stuff though.
