Original or modified? 120-130 1966

Hey Soren!
Great to hear from Jutland! My wife's grandpa, Holther Sven Olsen, the
Danish shoemaker, reported to us that, contrary to popular belief, Danish
is NOT a language, it is a dreaded condition of the throat.

I have had a 1963 4-door 122, a 1967 2-door 122 and 2 1966 122 estates.
My view is that I want it to look authentic (within reason) and have
installed the following non-standard equipment:
M41 tranny w/ old style lid and shifter
B20E engine (with carburetors)
HIF6 and/or HD8 carburetors
Street performance cam
front bumper overrider
dipswitch relay connected to turn signal switch
1968 grilles
123GT seats

Most people who see my cars don't realize that there is anything
nonstandard about their appearance but they do recognize the
performance.
