Is that your car ? Looking at the feedback it appears the seller sold a woodgrain radio delete plate as NOS when in fact it looks like a repo or for some other application ? The real ones have another set of studs that hold the woodgrain on.

Welcome to the site...It is just common for people to join just to sell their cars. Nice to know that is not what happened.

Most vehicles delivered to Canada usually opted to have the gas tank topped off w/RPO W-84:additional fuel,from the standard level,to prevent the fuel from freezing up in the tank,depending on the delivery location & at salesmans/customers discretion also.
They also got RPO V-48:increased engine coolant temperature protection,to prevent against the same.
I think any Champagne Gold 70 w/Gold Bkts is .
