Great docs on this one - but it looks like it started life with a white exterior and without the RS package.

At $23k, it seems like a fair deal for a restored car with the original drivetrain, but when the seller states "replacement of complete undercarriage" I wonder what it looks like up close (hopefully it was done correctly).

Why on earth do so many people scuff/damage the cowl tags.

Maybe cause sometimes there is so much paint and sealer on them they can't be read.

Mine had a big glob of body sealer on the 28.10 and it couldn't be read.

Whats a "certification tag" placed on the block? Certified for what?

30K original miles and the original engine pulleys are missing. That is a 15K car tops.

That's one of the earliest 73 I have seen.

Wouldnt that be late? Invoice says July 14, 1973 and the Build sheet looks like July 5th. Thats seems really late.

I get it, but maybe trying a paint remover or a stripper would cause less damage to the tag. Just my thoughts. Anyway it’s a nice car.
