Ford Capri and BMW E21 - Period-correct tuning preserved for the present day

While I haven’t managed to contact the owner of the red Capri, the owner of the BMW found me through the event’s Facebook-page, letting me know that his car has a period-correct KHL Widebody-kit and is not the only E21 with a period-correct tuning-kit he owns.
The car certainly deserves to be maintained the way it is, the company KHL ceasing to exist years ago pretty much put an end to getting spares or new kits.

At the meet the two cars certainly split the crowd’s opinion, with people appreciating the modifications being kept around rather than returning the cars to stock while others felt sorry for the “poor oldtimers” while a third group wondered how those “nailed together” things could get historic plates, not realizing that period-correct modifications are not disqualifying you from those.
