Shouldn't that have a grooved bumper and ribbed guard?

Should have the flat taillpipe.

There's a strong possibility that it would have originally had a crank start bracket on the bumper (and corresponding apron hole).

Should have round horn grilles; can't recall if it should be one or two - I think just one.
Ah, yes. It should have a flat tail pipe tip. I just checked on Kaefer-Nostalgie. As for the outside mirror, I wonder if it was routine for the dealer to install them. The car is from Europe and may have gotten the mirror when it got to the US.

It should have round horn grills. I think the standard had 1, and the deluxe had 2.

It should have grooved bumpers and grooved trim. You can't really see the trim in the pics.

There are two incorrect things on the hood. You can see one of them in the semaphore pic.
