Looking for a trunk lid on Long Island, nothing bent up or excessively rusty. Additionally if anyone has a set of door caps, black or in need of re-upholstery I would be interested.

I've got a beautiful boot lid. It's mine, personally, not a Flying Circus item. It's Rover-made and in great shape. You can see it here:

It's $275 and I'm glad to ship it to you. Shipping would probably be, I dunno, $30, give or take a bit? I'll just go ahead and say $300 shipped to Long Island.

Please let me know if you're interested. Thanks!

Desmond,

LOL!

FWIW, unlike bonnets, there are no inexpensive new boot lids. Moss offers one (and only one) that's not even BMH and it's $609.95. Here's the link:

Wyatt-
for your extra $200.00 and a couple of polar bear stories, i'll throw in the rest of the car along with 2 courtside tickets for the knicks game. And dont kid me that polar bears are only at the north pole.

Well I paid $400 for the whole car and about $400 later I have a running and driving 70 mgb. So I can't swallow the idea of paying close to the initial cost of the car for just a boot lid. But it is nice to see so many responses and choices!

Don-
read my PM.
my trunk lid is just $100.00, nowhere near $400.00 cost of your car, and
since we both live on l.i., you save all those shipping charges.
it is also listed for sale, with very nice pix, in a separate listing here on the "traders forum".
regards, lee
