[arrivederci]

Slate gray exterior with all the correct '72 chrome and anodized accents. No RS or carrera badging. Simple, clean, generally understated. Interior will be black/gray w/ sport seat replicas, but seat fabric and color are undecided. I want recliner seats as this will be driven somewhat daily.

I have an RS style front bumper that I'll be trial fitting this weekend along with the rear bumper and the motor & trans. The rear bumper needs cutouts under the bumperettes as I'll be running an RSR style muffler from M&K. Will also fit the fenders and cut the oil lines to the driver's fender mounted secondary oil cooler. I have an updated transmission from a euro '84 with oil cooler and '86 108mm flanges. Hopefully it is strong enough. I'm not planning for any track time with this car.

Paint will probably take 3-4 weeks and I'm in line behind Speedo's soft window targa. All that will give me time to go through things like the turn signal and brake light buckets, figure out where I'll put the battery, gauges restored and modified for a 3.6L mill, rebuild CVs, and address other loose ends.
