the late 70's. but very few Cartiers were ordered without it.

Above is the factory "build sheet". presumably inserted here (between the metal clip that holds the hood insulation

to the hood) by factory workers on or about January 26th. 1979 on the day this Cartier was built. I carefully removed

it in April. 2012 in order to further preserve its amazing survival for the past 33 years. As can be seen below. it's

still at least 90% readable and all of the verifiable numbers completely match the numbers on the car .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Turbine-Style color-keyed Cast Aluminum Wheels

Original Factory Michelin tires including unused matching spare
