    THE MANNEQUIN IS NEGOTIABLE. --------------------------------------------- Every deal always has to have some negotiation room.

    Take notice to the steering wheel. I never noticed the spokes being not in thirds. Maybe it's just this version

    I see that on other early m151 photos. Wouldn't it be funny if it was because the steering wheel supplier's design engineer couldn't do the math

    The steering wheel almost matches the peace sign on the Jeep in the garage.
