pretty much all original & unrestored, shows well with only minor
imperfections visible upon close inspection. Front bumper has a
good fit, with rubber over riders, the rear bumper (with the same
over riders) has a excellent fit and finish that shows well. All
trim pieces are present and have a brilliant finish with little
hazing and or dent that we could see. The weather stripping is
still very pliable with very little shrinkage or drying. The U.S.
spec headlights and taillights are in very condition with no hazing
or cracks. the original equipment wheels showed very little
marring. Inside, the rich Saffron (code 104) MB-Tex vinyl seats all
look great with no major signs of wear visible. Excellent matching
carpet throughout the interior. Overall the genuine wood looks
great, however there is some finish lifting on the dash top by the
windshield. The door panels and dashboard are matched perfectly
with the exterior of the car and look fantastic. The headliner
mirrors the rest of the cabin and completes the theme.�The original
