Seriously Rare Car!
ST DRAGN:
Interesting vehicle to see in person. I notice there is no trim on the dash however there is on the exterior of the vehicle? I always assumed that a "standard" vehicle had no trim at all...Also, I never could figure out why the euro standard came with only one front grill?

I know a 1200 std from 69 that was restored as og, it has trim only on the side of the car, not on the front hood, not on the dash and not on windows rubbers. But it has 2 horn grills and chrome turn signals, a little luxury on late std ! ;D.

That's a seriously cool car. I usually stay far away from rare stuff, but I'd consider that if I were in a position to.

The Standard had side trim in '67 but no hood trim. It didn't come with trim on the running boards either. The reason for one horn grille was that the horn was behind it. The reason a Deluxe had two grilles was purely aesthetic - to level things out when you looked at the car from the front.
The other thing worth noting is the headliner - If you zoom in on the pic above you'll be able to see the area under the window is painted. The Standard only had a headliner in the center of the roof - the bit above you. The rest was painted body color.

Got the same on the 69 std I know. I'm wondering if the wheels are og on this 67 std, they come out with black & white rims and body-color hubcaps ?
