I was wandering aimlessly around today looking through car stuff and came across the copy of the road test I saved years ago. Neat!

Great! I had kept this test forever and forgotten about it. Sure neat to read about the car. I wish the pictures scanned better. It shows the special seats that Knudsen's car has in it.

I can fit bucket seats with no problem but Tom actually gave the answer in the third test car.  Keep it original!  Nice to have seven grown ups in the car with no problem!  The correct grill detail is shown on the main picture.  Will post a photo as soon as I have completed aligning the panels.
