Wow!!!!! GLWS

Wow is right! If I'm reading correctly, the black bottom and hood are not original. Would the mirrors have been yellow as well? Best of luck.

Lower tu-tone and hood scoop are not original. Mirrors were originally black. Ghia had "color-keyed" (body color) mirrors. Base model had black mirror(s).

Nice car. Good luck with sale.

I don't think the seats are original --- they aren't the correct color, and while they are the correct style, they don't have the correct cloth insert pattern either.

Was the lower bodyside protection coating removed when the black paint was applied?
