Why would they put aftermarket wheels on that car? Oh well.

love the pastel yellow thanks for sharing
the trim around the windows is aftermarket
how much money was in it?
I took my daughter to the bank today, they have a machine to dump your coins in. we brought her piggy bank...$191 in coin + 45 bills...not a bad score for her bank account. a little different from when I was a kid.

you can't put money in that car unless you are outside of the USA.

I dont think I like the silver painted rockers and tail. Maybe those are Gemballa aero pieces. The wheels look like the 9FF center locks. I am not sure, but I think the wipers and not OE either. Small things to change (pardon the punn) to make it original again. Good find!! Best of luck with your new ride.
