Nice! Glad you pulled the trigger. You'll have a good time with this car for sure! According to your vin, it's a '78. Unless it should've been 910 instead of 810.

Hello!!!!

Awesome, and it's that ultra rare, "10th Vin Digit" delete model...(a weight saving measure for sure right there)

Can't wait for more pics.

Well done!!!!

NIce! I like the period Blau audio gear! - Hopefully that faceplate went over the radio surround and it's not been 'trimmed'. A good vinyl guy (search 'fibrenew') in your area can fix that headliner tear. Hard to tell but looks like you still have the Euro fogs. Great find! Pop an LS in there and surprise some folks!

Nice Score!! and yes they are Euro lights in the nose. The radio looks to be mounted a little off center, so maybe the surround has been trimmed to fit.

Yes, upon further investigation, unfortunately the surround was trimmed, and also found OE speaker wire leads were bypassed. So this unit was not actually factory equipped.
I have not bench tested this unit, but it is now for sale,
I think $200 is a fair price, + actual shipping cost.

Did it come with a "Phone with scramblers" or does the radio have "scanners to pick up flying saucers"?



Congrats!
