Don't anyone touch it !!!
The front is 77 GLS the rear is early 76 LS.
What does that tell you ?
Apart from being saved from doing your dough.

Please enlighten me! I am interested as we used to own it and it was not chopped then...

Sure was Eri, cut and shuts are illegal and have been for many years, it was probably done in the 1980s.
Not even a good job then.

Interesting...thanks for enlightening me...the current owner did say he had some issues fitting a chrome bumper to the front - and I just looked at our pics of when we owned it and it had a plastic bumper on the front and chrome on the back...

Is it a swallowtail panel fitted to the rear or entire rear bodywork?

Out of interest what is the difference the front of a 76 and 77, apart from the bonnet?

For someone who says they have been around since the arc has never heard of a cut and shut.

My apologies, I thought replacing the entire rear bodywork was a cut-and-shut. I just wanted clarification on how much had been replaced.
