Same color as my 300D. But your headlight doors are quite fresh looking, and your wheels are quite clean. Straight sheetmetal, interior looks very nice. What's up with the wood shift knob? Cadmium plating under the hood and exhaust black paint are largely missing, but I'm being very nit-picky here. Hood pad appears to be non-original. Overall: Damn, that thing looks good. Mine is much rougher, and likely to get worse. I haven't track-stripped it yet, but the possibility always remains.
Hi Skippy. I added the wood shift knob, bought it from Pelican Parts! One of my favorite mods. True, Cadmium plating has worn off. Yes, hood pad is from a couple of years ago, and is not original.

Sincerely,

Packman
