It looks great now but if you really wanted a full retro look you would need to go back to 4 1/2 rims and skinny tyres!

I would say: Mk1 bootlid, mk1 grille/moustache combination, remove the front fogs and fit a side exit exhaust

Get rid of the winged bonnet badge and replace with a period item.
Mk2 rear lights (Mk1 would be more retro but isn't a bolt on mod).

Change the clear indicators and side repeaters to orange lenses instead, cheap to do and you might be surprised at the difference.
