on the pinball machine?

In all seriousness, why does the car have an SC front-end with a 1985 build date? The dash looks like an SC version, too. Don't Carrera dashes have a larger center vent?

Maybe this was a special-wishes product?

it was a special year for the SC cab, according to the seller's ad

[1982911SCTarga]

Because Ms. Foster bought one?

Brian

Dash, fog lights and chairs are SC. I think just the badge and the steeringwheel to make it look like a Carrera.

Was probably previously owned by Jody Foster.

or just repeating the ad?

Seinfeld joke.

I wonder if they have Jon Voight's LeBaron as well...lol

IIRC - the actual ad says it's and 83.

For all seriousness - Carreras built in 84 had the "flush" fog lights. The small A/C vents were still around in 84 and 85. 85 got the in windshield radio antenna. 86 got the larger A/C vents.

The larger vent didn't come along until 1987.
Did she ever live in Europe??? I took my 83 cab out for a short drive this morning, great day for it

My friend's 86 has larger A/C vents. As far as he knows (or tells me) they are original.

[speeder]

Large vents started in '86. (I sold them at the dealer at the time). That steering wheel came in 1985 M.Y. The seats are from an '84 or older. That car is a mish-mash of parts.

A 1984 Carrera is identical to an SC other than the flush fog lights and badge on engine lid.

[Nostril Cheese]

I had an 83 SC that came with a Carrera steering wheel FWIW

Without pics of Jody Foster this thread is useless
