Reply to "car wanted"

I'd have to agree with DeTom, I think it is an illusion from the carpet fibers.

Despite the fact it has a mouse hair dash, Euro gauges, later style clock & seats (All which could be added easily), in looking more closely at the Ebay photo's this car also has;

1. US impact bumpers front & rear
2. US sidelights (Euro cars had none or a button front side indicator lamp)
3. Early style heater control panel (an '87 would have the later Maserati unit)
4. Narrow heater/air vents (Later cars had wider vents)
5. Handbrake on the righthand side of the center console. (cars after 92** had the e-brake on the drivers side of the console)
6. Std door panels (later cars had crinkle leather)

Without a thorough inspection of this car and/or some sort of provenance in writing I think it would be difficult to establish it's true history. I presonally err toward it being a US car with some updated features and rebuild of the inner fenders front and rear.
