The owner of this car got in touch with us and has provided details of this rare LS for our register. This is one of very few Iridium Green 998 LS cars produced in 1977/1978 in the lead up to the release of the 1275LS.

The current owner is now undertaking a full restoration of the car back to bare metal, and intends to restore it to its original specification.

A few more images just added showing how the restoration is progressing - looking good!

If you have a mini LS like this, sign up and add your car to the register or get in contact with us so we can add it! If anyone has history on this particular 998 LS, please comment below.
