I was surfering on internet and find this post, it´s wonderful and looks very nice. I got one, two months ago, here in spain, like yours(but with the drivers seat on left ). Mine it´s 1.3 Ghia too with around 40.000 miles (63.000 km) on gold color.

You could be very proud of your unit!

Mine is here

Looks a minter, would of left the bumpers black, looks too original to start modifing it. Rear wiper must of been an option on early ghias
