Are you sure it was original? The car is 42 years old. Things happen.

the vins matched..window..top of fender......
no door jamb though was painted over...
non retract belts...and ALL of the bolts and nuts were there
to hold down the psngr seat...
who would go to all that trouble to install them??

This is not scientific, but why not? My Certificate of Authenticity on my 74 is inaccurate. I just read the thread about whether Gugelot had anything to do with the design of the car or not, like no one seems to know who designed it for sure. Things at the factory were murky at best…

Why not throw in an early interior that was laying around and selling the car? They made about 120,000 of our beloved vehicle, maybe yours is a spontaneous mutation!!!

Pictures please!
