I got goose bumps reading a listing today. I think my first car is up for auction. When I first started glancing at the pictures, I thought "wow, looks similar to my first car except for the color and roof". Then I read in one of the comment that someone decoded the Fisher plate, and the original color was Cypress Green and Black roof. This is when the goosebumps appeared.

I added a oil temp gauge and voltmeter below the ashtray. Oil temp is still there, can't tell what the guage on the right is now, but you can see it has a black bezel, the oil temp is chrome ringed. I DID NOT add that tachometer, and I had the original steering wheel and rims.

I can't be 100% sure, but I really think this was once my car. My father bought it in 1972, gave it to me in 74 and I sold it in 76 to buy a Fiat 850 spyder.
