Is that a bodged ss or a 2+2?
If it was mine I would remove the roof permanently, change the screen aswell, It could look cool, like an eagle ss without a roof.
Instead on an eagle ss with a tent on top. :thumbdown:

I'm wondering as well - the front of the car is a 2+2, but the back is an SS. What gives :confused1:

Maybe it's a complete mongrel. Could be a horror story under those panels & shiny paint.

Could well be - the door shutlines might be a clue...

Interestingly the rear wings are a lot lower than the normal SS, the top of the screen is wider and the 'A' post more upright as are the side windows, pop up head lights as MR2 and a radical bonnet, so unless someone has gone to a lot of trouble to remove the rear window and lower the area behind the doors etc, is it indeed an Eagle Plus 2 or is it a factory built coupe? I've never seen one like this before.

Perhaps it predates the Plus 2, which I guess is called that because of some vestigial rear seating, which is not apparent here. A prototype, perhaps?

Perhaps there was an Eagle Plus Zero? :coat:

Back on ebay, 20 miles from me.
Engine has been pulled out, guess it was the only thing worth any value.
Hes going to have to scrap it now, nobody in there right mind is going to buy that now!
