ray, could be a Superformance, the dash layout is same as mine assuming the dash pic you show incudes another toggle switch hidden in pic view by the right side of the steering wheel. also ap-appears to be a blue light between the far two left gauges which would be typical of spf's. the light above the ignition key should be red and the ohter light shows as yellow which is also typical for spf's.

the gear shift lever knobs on spf's show a 4 spd pattern even with the 5 spd tremec, that is the way they come.

best to check under the hood for telltale spf chassis number id's"

* on the frame crossmember between the radiator and engine will be a stamped serial which will read either :

- AC9CSLK1897AM1xxx
-SPxxx
-SPOxxxx (the x's being the numeric chassis number)

* also, lifting the hood, there should be a Superformance decal on the right inner fender well area near the firewall that says Superforamance and will also have the serial number as referenced above. some folks , or states, remove this decal for various reasons.

remember , the serial on the title may not be the serial of the car, ie, someone used a title washing co and got a new serial, or a state (like michigan) assigned the car their own unique 'assembled vehicle' serial number

best check the cross member and tell us what the stampings are as typically those are not messed with although i have seen some folks cover those up to.

color could be spf malachite green. fender fins appear to be stainless on my pc screen. bill.
