It is a minor quibble and certainly won't affect the final bid, but a \"car is only original once\" (not my quote) and the market has grown to see that over the last decade. \nIn all honesty, if I were just a little more successful financially and didn't have my last child 1 year away from college, I would LOVE to buy this car, and take it's best parts and combine them with my 99' (don't hate me). This is a great looking car!!! but I personally like my Imola Red better. I know all things being equal, just the low numbers on this paint combo make this car more collectable than mine (even with my slightly lower miles), but my M Roadster I consider a family member and an heirloom and my kid can't wait for me to die so he can get his hands on it (JK...I kid :) . Because of my passion for originality, the only parts I'd ever put on it are era correct Dinah.... and your top is nicer than mine too.
