Wink Forum's first post about a 163?

Found these pics while surfing. Labelled as 165, but obviously it's a 163!

It's not just a welded up 5 door estate, it has the longer front doors from a 2 door saloon. So there must be parts from at least 3 shells here, 164, 1/242 and 1/245

Weird

Wasn't there a garage in Manchester or somewhere near there that knocked out a few of these conversions on a semi-official basis?
