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 ?

Do a search with google for here (this search is useless), cuz a CA member who used to have an orange early 73 with it, did 2 topics in the Garage &/or Originality Forum about them, with lists of other members with A-pillar vinyl.
Please make sure to post in or at least bump them when you find the topics threads, so that they'll come back up to the top of the recent topics listing for others to find more easily. My 8/31/72 built 73 2.0 originally had A-pillar vinyl from remnants under seals, but it was removed in one of the 2 repaints done by the new dealer &/or original owner before I bought it 3 years old in Dec. 1975. I'm debating whether or not to recreate the A-pillar vinyl in my current resto. Cheers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |

My very late '73 2.0 behind it doesn't have any A-pillar vinyl, or B-pillar for that matter. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-12234-1410723002.jpg) |
