One for the database. Sry no buck tag avail. No other pics-it was very dusty and in a dimly lit shed where it has been sitting for some years. No options to speak of-other than the Ghia package.

I think 3H isMedium blue metallic glow, must have been painted?
Well now I never noticed that. Assumed under all that dust and dim lighting that it was originally vaquero. That's what I assumed the color is aeven tho I haven't seen it in person for over 30 years. It's why I went to look - that and the 2.8. Interior is def vaquero. That would have been an odd combination with 3H?
Are you sure the door is original to the car?

In the pic above, it looks like someone taped off the tag and then painted it. You can see paint around the edge of the sticker. I doubt someone would have taken the time to tape it off if it didn't belong to the car. Seems easier to peel it off or paint over it, in the case of a half-a'd paint job.
What's the scoop on this car? Are you thinking about buying it? Is it for sale?
