    Hello !!!
    It`s done, after long time with chase parts, grind, weld and running to the painter the hole time long to help them.

    I decided to choose the original colour as near as it was and the computer telled us :

    take the BMW M3 Colour !

    and realy, it looks great - my opinion.

    look at this swiss car with only 140.000 km.

    I LOVE HIM !!

    please your coments, gents !

    Looks great! No small feat anywhere, much less in Europe. This wouldn't be a car from Alabama that would have been exported in late 05 or 06, would it? Thanks, Rudy E.

    Buick offered different 2 tone interior combos like this one for '72. The interior of this GS is a factory style 2 tone -Saddle/black. My '72 Stage1 car originally came with a black/sandalwood accessories(door panels,seats)yuch.

    Hello,
    the interior colour is code 137 tan.

    how to find out how much swiss cars were be build - any idea ?

    Off course i will thank you all for your positive opinions !

    That make me prouder than to here this from guys who drive VW and japanese plastic cars - cause YOU know how these cars have to look.
    Everybody told me to paint it not original - they say : make it black !!
    But i think it was much better to make him original again !
