This was recently imported to Portugal from Denmark. Obviously there are a few non OG features: later wings, incorrect carpetting, semaphore slots welded up: various details which I'm sure you'll be able to spot. However, immediate plans are just to get its paperwork sorted.

It's been restored in the past to a pretty high level, although not using correct parts, and has been on a world tour... and was originally supplied to the federal frontier guard in Germany.

Great find!

I wonder if it should actually be green and a "Standard" spec cabrio, since it´s a border patrol car?
