I reverse numbers and letters my whole life.
I was driving in my car and I thought the full was empty. As I was filling it with gas my brain saw it as the tank gage was moving the wrong way. No lye. Dyslectic. As I was filling it up with gas I was thinking the gas was going the wrong way. You kids stay away from drugs. When you get in your mid 50s it will come back to get you. Bob |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) I did the wiring today and Tom will drop the car off at the end of the next week. The car will hopefully arrive at the end of August... waiting can be so cruel... Oliver |

But as I remember the engine doesn't match. Am I right? If you plan to fly there and drive the green across the country I will wait another two weeks. The shipper is www.interfracht.de. They made a good job with the blue one last year. Gustl, I am in Italy/Toscana from 01. to 15. of September... if you find a way to come around... you are welcome! |

Absolutely gorgeous ... I assume that rear bumper, even though it is the later 'roundy' type, is the original bumper ???
Again, absolutely gorgeous ... I'm turning green already !!! Had my silver 6 for 21 years ... I miss it !!! Enjoy ... |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Andy I would be interested to know the cutoff date as well - my 9141430382 has a "roundy" rear bumper. |

I think all '71's had the later bumper. I know my '71 four did. Calling the early bumper the "six bumper" is a misnomer as all '70's had the "square bumper" and I " think" all '71's had the rounded one.
