Here is what is fun--note the smallest of variations on the dash, esp that the window switches are 2 singles, not the paired Ducellier that would otherwise be placed above the cigarette lighter....I'm assuming that this is not a replacement, that the earlier pair would have created a solid hole--so makes a total of 4 dash variations for the Goose (AC in the dash after ~8ma1100, switches down in the first cars, up in the 8ma900's, and now This one!
Other clues on the serial: The AC condenser fan blade is the later multi-blade (plastic with the Motorcraft motor?), M!ke your car has a different motor and 4-blade metal fan (that I assume all earlier cars had...!). Single piece buckets and 2 piece door cards...umbrella parking brake and pulls on the door locks...
The carb is wrong and backwards, and I think the manifold replaced...hard to tell if there is an original air cleaner...I'm still curious if the Lucas 4ST solenoid was really shipped from the factory (finally I decided the 4ST found on '1076 must have been a service replacement, as I can tell the date code was 1971--which on a 1970 car means the Lucas 2ST must have really kept up Lucas's reputation for reliability 
). Note also that odd Mangusta emblem on the AC (but the one we're used to on the engine cover).
Still, just wonderful to see another car unearthed...and if someone can find glass and a grille, could once again be a great car. Lucky for me, the garage is full and the wallet empty--Lee
