For the 1000th time, those are not 'Halibrand SC Cobra Wheels'-they're Trigos. Doesn't matter much-they can't give this car away.
Notice the wipers parked to driver side-and there's three of 'em. Right off and E-Type??

The three wipers were required to meet NHTSA standard for percentage of windshield area cleared. Other changes not often noticed include the inside surface of the windshield frame being satin finished to meet the non-reflectivity standard as well as host of other small modifications.
Pencil??? Everybody knows Jon Voight drove a Chrysler convertible!
Now, what popular 80s TV show had an AC MK IV in an episode? Extra hint it was driven by a non-actor who was a guest on the episode. Extra, extra hint...show known for squealing tires (on dirt roads!)??????

Dukes is correct! Although MacGyver could have rebuilt the car with a spoon and a popsicle stick!
One of the producers had a white MK IV and tried for a long time to work in into the show. Cale Yarborough was a guest and Ralph got him in the car for a short shot.
Brian you REALLY need a job!!!!

Did not know that Rick. Do you know if they're in fact E-Type parts?

They are Lucas wiper pieces and may be the same. They are the "wheelbox" type pivots driven by a two speed Lucas cable drive motor.

Maybe there's a pencil in the glovebox the new owner could match up to Joel's dental records.....

Well why doesn't the advertiser change their ads? I mean if they state Billy was original owner than I would want proff of such and not some entertainment company name.
