Definitive list of Euro delivery differences?

[kenikh]

I am trying to figure out what the differences were between European delivery (and ROW, for that matter) and US cars. FOr example, US cars have the metal VIN tag on the driver's side window pillar; Euro cars do not. US cars after a certain year had charcoal cannisters and ROW cars did not. Has anybody compiled a list of what the differences are?

My euro Delivered car has.

Hard plastic switch knobs (no rubber covers)
H1 Headlights.
Signal housings have different bulb configurations and lenses.
No A-pillar VIN
Bratwurst and Jagermeister in the toolkit.
Scent of a European woman in the passenger seat.

I wonder if it was also void of and sticker like what Rob Moglia is reproducing?

Correct, ROW did not have the door jam sticker as is being recreated. Lighting, switches and smog probably only differences. A few specific country things in the aux. drive/fog lights and reflectors (ie Italy/France) and of course LHD/RHD thing for England/Aust./Japan. There is also the euro vs US ride height thing but not sure that is established fact. Under bumper fogs were not available in 70/71 (I think) for US cars.

my 73 Euro (France) delivered car has no charcoal canister, hard plastic knobs, no "fasten seat belt" light, no markings on the turn signal housing for either blinkers or wipers, plain plastic knobs (red and black) for heat and cold throttle, KM speedo, and the radio has M (AM band) and L (static band). And being a French delivery it has yellow H4 bulbs in the headlights. I really like the clean look of the dash/interior.

LOL! I could go for some of that.

That's supposed to be a good thing, right?

Cmon It's just one little tiny pice of vinyl. Cut it out already.

69 US had the metal compliance tag under the paint tag instead of the sticker I believe.

Gas venting lines were different as noted above.

forgot the speedo and radio bands - good catch.

My Italian delivered 911T 2.4 has the following italy-specific options:

- no alarmlights (and no button for that);
- standard no rear-wiper;
- different horn;
- white front indicators (white part is larger than the orange part)

Good topic It took my ages to get to this list, and I'm still searching for a complete overview.
