Looks very clean mate, lose the spoiler, louvre and mudflaps......ASAP! then Schlam it on some original berlina hubcaps, redwall the tyres and throw some venetians in it....mint.
If it were my car i would...
Lose the red strip running around the car on top of the bumpers. Lose the spoiler, lose the badges on the back, tint your tail lights and respray the rear center garnish. Also would lose the thing on the rear window.
OR...
Work the engine and have yourself an awesome sleeper
Nice car btw

other than that you have one clean example there.

yeah i'm going to take some pics of the interionr soon.. its already got sheepskin seat covers.. and a croquet rug on the back seat along with floor mats and dashmat..
but i'll get pics up as soon as i can, its a little diffcult at the moment as i broken my right leg on christmas day (moving a fridge) so cant drive here for 6+ weeks as the cast goes from toes up past knee....
and the worst part is that i'll be reciveing my cooler this week and i wont be able to put it on..
dimples love the wheels on ur ride really suite the two tone
If you wanted to keep the sleeper thing happening you could go further with some stick on chrome strip bits that sit just above the wheel arches... I think you can still by the flexible stuff from supercheap, I always see that stuff on old granpa caravaners... you could also put a towbar on it with a half cut tennis ball..... midas well!
by the way nice car...... kinda makes me think about mine when I first bought it...
cheers bloke!
