Poking around my 75, I can't seem to feel any filler in the back of the sail panels as if it had targa vinyl that was filled in.....
It's an original Anacona blue metallic car, and it appears to have all the original drivetrain in it.... Did some come with no targa vinyl from the factory? |

Fascinating.
Do you have the sidemarkers on the fenders? It looks like the rear trim on the sail panel in the photo is black. Also, your vin is missing two important digits. Any signs on your car that would indicate this to be a euro delivery?? Don |

I will grab the vin tomorrow, unfortunately I became busy at work and was unable to get back to the car tonight. It had front fender side markers, however the PO had them "shaved" by the bodyshop who painted the car. With the rest of the body work I can see filler poking through the back panels here/there, and seeing none up there inbetween was interesting since I envisioned crappy rust repair from where I was thinking it was guaranteed to have rusted under the vinyl. I am quite sure the car was US delivery 100% since it has CAT/EGR lights on the instrument cluster from it being an original california car. I also removed 1/2 the EGR system myself, since the previous owner swapped to an earlier set of exhaust headers without egr. |
