In very early 1973, some A.G. cars came with vinyl covered A pillars. As a fan of the rare and unusual I wonder how many cars still have it that came with it. I have a Revenna green 1973 which still has it. I have never seen another one in person. Anybody else have one of these cars ?

My vinyl pillar car is #299 and still had non reinforced doors and early dash vents. As said, using up the '72 parts. The "orangina" car is a very nice example.

QUOTE(PancakePorsche @ Apr 3 2017, 12:21 AM)  My vinyl pillar car is #299 and still had non reinforced doors and early dash vents. As said, using up the '72 parts. The "orangina" car is a very nice example. Personally, I really like the look and I wonder why the factory didn't continue doing it. As you said, it makes for another unusual and rare variation ... 44+ years later my guess is that there are probably less surviving examples today than the LE cars. A couple more shots of Orangina: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-12234-1428787476.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-12234-1428787442.jpg) |
