Gosh, maybe I've never seen an 'original' 72 before...

As you can read in this eBay ad, the car is original...

Um, and red... ish

They could be Fuchs 8 x 16s all around. But I think they are *real* corroded.

The wheels are fake. The edges on the petals are too sharp. Other than that, the car is obviously completely original

Whenever I see these "project cars" that are all torn up and beat to hell, all I can think of is how simple it would be to spray them matte-black, drop in all my running gear from my bent-up Targa, and build a real scary Gruppe-B bastardo.

If it wasn't filled with rust, this thing could look pretty awesome with the right gear: Flat-black, RS carpets, FM-10s, a decent tail... mmmm
