Bjorn,
Your web page with the 123GT features is a good start. However, you stated that in "1969 (S)/1970 (T) the GT lost mirrors, extra light, and compartment lights. That is not true.....at least in the Swiss market. My 1969 model has all of these. Yes, some of the Swiss models were sold with only one mirror and perhaps some without, but these were installed by the dealer anyway. Most of the 123GTs sold in Germany that I've seen had the Talbot (teardrop) racing mirrors. The 67/68 German sales brochures show the 123GT with that mirror, but again, they were dealer installed. It also appears that the Swiss and Germans sold the 123GT with two fog lights rather than one fog and one driving light.
I will send you a scan of 1969 Swiss 123GT sales brousure with a photo with one mirror (left side), fog lights, and the specs on the back clearly state that the compartment lights (in the trunk and under the hood) are standard. You can add the Swiss brochure to your web page.
You mentioned (again) what the 1969 123GT did not have that the 67/68 model years had, but failed to mention what the 69 model had that the earlier 123GTs did not....such as: B20B 1.986 liter engine with 118 SAE Horse Power, dual circuit brakes, J Type Overdrive, locking steering wheel with the ignition on the steering column, and four way flashers. These things were a lot more important than the chrome beauty rings and exhaust extention which were available as optional parts anyway.
