Default Proud new owner - 78 Euro with Pascha

Been lurking here for a few years and finially found a car for my collection that has the pascha interior.
78 Euro with automatic (of course) - silver with what looks like black and white pascha interior. Seats are vinyl. Vin is 9288101267. Car was imported to the States from Switzerland in 85.
Usual cracks in the dash and the front seat seams are torn between the pascha and vinyl. The rest of the interior is near perfect and I will be interested to see what our resident pascha expert, Bronto, has to say about it.
Car has been sitting in a garage here in DFW for nearly 10 years. The owner regularly started the car and she ran well enough for me to drive home.

She will be visiting Sean at 928 Doc's for some mechanical TLC in the next week or so.

Question for Marton or any other Rennlister in Switzerland. The car has a Euro rear bumper but no rear red fog light. The Swiss market was special in that cars were made specifically for that market - so did they or did they not have a rear fog light?

According to PET the bumper for ROW came without the fog light and they were added dependant on delivery destination. I know UK cars had two rear fog lights, one each side.

Pictures tomorrow as it is to dark.

Welcome to Rennlist, "Roger" (if thats your real name).

You'll find people here are friendlier if you stump up the $18 for membership, and it'll be an invaluable investment you wont regret.

Jim,
Where does the VIN put my car - early or late 78.
It has the same door air vents as yours.
Poormans Kermit has cloth but with stripes.

Rog, I can't comment without pictures!

And I was going to ask the same thing about Kermit's brother, I thought it had pascha too.

Congrats either way!

With over 4K units produced worldwide, MY 78, I'd say early -Which means built late '77.

It's has the odd early vents in both the console and armrests?
