Ah, but maybe you didn't hear me correctly... your early Inka Tii should have Trapezoid mirrors and would be even more correct if it had only the driver side one as the passenger side mirror was seldom installed on these cars as new. Only added on as a after sales option.

Here's some reading for you....

I there are many details to your car that are special to it's very early production that it would be good to keep correct in its restoration. If I recall, #18 has the VIN tag on the steering column cover but still does not have the Fasten seat belt pod atop the dash......

Thanks Tom....yes I know about the mirrors. I have new set of later year mirrors that were not a cheap date....but I will see what else turns up by the time I get to it.

I will need to see if the car has the fasten seat belt reminder. I will see the car tomorrow and check....I am thinking that it does but I would not bet on it.

Delete trim - check.

Paint mirrors - check.

What's next? Body-colored plastic bumpers?

OH THE HUMANITY!

Remember, your front subframe should also be a dark olive green. Anything not stock or correct is subject to ridicule!
