Thats quite expensive for a non-original Fastback! and if i was spending 20K plus i would want a complete original car...

depends if you call missing grill section, mirrors and bumpers sprayed out white and looks like a full re-spray with not even close white colour as original, yeah i guess.
i would be looking for non-resprayed, original rims and wheel trims, interior, chromework, engine and engine bay all factory.
or very very close.
that one is also over priced

finding a Bellett totally unmolested is near impossible i think. At least this onecould be put back to std. fairly easily i think. Or at least, fairly close.
That car has been for sale for many months.

I am with Waldo, I reckon also those rear guards have been modified, the arch has been increased from pictures I have??

I don't think any bellett had radiated guards from factory. When I did it, I used front guard sections as the basis and It appears that one did also. I wouldn't do it again though !!,

Definitely modified rear guards...like adding flared guards to a 240K, just about the worst mod someone can make, as it completely erases one of the car's best styling cues.
The grille on the white car appears correct oz, although missing the badge. It's also received some ugly 80's/90's modifications, but it's much closer than the first one.
What price for a weird Bellett that doesn't really look like a Bellett? The second one is better value IMO.

I've already told my wife that if we win lotto I will have a Fastback.
As Oz said... patience patience patience.... probably forever!
