The first thing I checked on this auction was whether this gorgeous color combination was original, and unfortunately it's not - this car began life as a much less striking white-on-red. Still, I think the seller didn't hurt the value at all by adopting these colors. It's stunning.

Pretty car. Are those trim rings correct?

It looks like it has 15 x 7's instead of 15 x 8 wheels.

----Damn, Dave! I was looking right at them and didn't think the leather looked correct and never thought about the style of the seats. Kudos to you, my man!!!......Bill S

That "no-hit" body is wearing later flared wheel openings all around, so there's a lot of fiberglass splicing going on somewhere. The 15x7 Rallys and late seats are a good indicator that this was thrown together with all of the extra stuff laying around the garage.
