The upgrades make the car look more original. The seats are greatly improved and that makes them more comfortable. They are suspension seats vs fiberglass buckets.

The big upgrade was aluminum panels in the engine bay and trunk. Improved hood prop. Improved throttle linkage and many many other visual improvements.

It is unmistakable when you see an old version and newer one together. My wife noticed when 755 came home. She noted it looked like a factory built car and 178 looked like a kit car.

I am one of the few that has owned both versions.

I have a large number of pictures from when I sold 178 and 755. I am not sure how I could easily get them to you.
