Windwings for Su8 Convertibles

Posted by Tim Cole On 2015/7/12 13:17:43

I've been looking over factory photos of 18th series cars and I find that certain popular publications have either mislabeled 120's as 160's or the photos themselves were mislabeled.

Given the number of fakes floating around I've considered costing the conversion for the wind wings. I don't find body swapping particularly problematic other than were I given the choice I would rather have the 120 anyway. Especially if it is a low mileage original.

Presently none of the clubs are enforcing this authenticity issue, but a kit might be a worthwhile venture.

So how much are people willing to pay for the correct wind wings I wonder?

I can assure they built very limited quantities of Su8 convertibles. I've personally only seen two real ones in original condition and one photo of a genuine unrestored 160 convertible sedan.
