Runs great..after Scott Smith (Harms) carbs rebuild and we just threw away the FBO ignition system and went back to stock 71 with dual point.

Has 8 3/4 3.91 sure grip....known by my son as the "neck snappers"

Right-hand drive?

Although the brake booster seems to be on the left side.

I think the white seats and black door panels is a pretty awesome combo.

Not OEM, but it makes sense by not getting your bums burnt in the hot sun.

More pics!

I am changing the interior over to white from black and I just haven't gotten to the front door panels yet. I have new ones, ready to install.

Good luck on those repop door panels.

Palco or Accuform (not sure what you bought) are a bit ill-fitting.

I'm hoping Metro will repop 'vert rear panels:

Perhaps you can add yourself to the list???
