Still, it would be a fun driver even though it's fairly plain. But not for my $38K. Maybe high $20's?
Wonder if it has an M22 or something more easily obtainable?
And someone mentioned the later, smaller (& higher) clutch pedal. When did this start? '75?
Smaller clutch pedal was new for 73,as I recall.

In my observation ALL 70-71 standard interior birds came with unplated (non-chrome) pot metal inside door releases.

1972 standard trim got the chrome versions.
Pretty easy part to switch out,just like adding the stainless (shiny) pedal trim.
