The 1600 with the top down is the one my brother just finished a total restoration for a customer. The other is my 1500 that was finished 39 years ago. Mine has developed some "patina" over the years. The 1600 has no "patina".

Very nice, I like new cars that have just been finished but I also like the aging of cars into the vintage show car patina.

Thanks guys. My bro does good work.

As for the wing mirrors, mine were on my car when I bought it back in 1968. I liked them then and still do. They do detract somewhat from the graceful lines of the fenders but their function is worth it my book.
