Shoot, we'll never see that one in the States! Poor car, I wonder what the story is behind it?

You talking about the factory service manual? They are available as reprints from vendors such as Year One, or you can get them on CD from these fine folks:

Wow.

That is some deja vu!! Here is a pic of the first '71 SSP I bought. (Also put on the air grabber hood). This was taken sometime around 89. Uncanny resemblance!!

Can't be this car though - I know where it is now. (That is another story I'll tell when I get some of these old pictures scanned)
