Well, let see... for a start...

- Pentastar is in the wrong place
- I've never seen chrome molding on an Alpine - isn't it from a Hillman?
- Wrong hubcap on the spare (and it shouldn't have one anyway)
- What's with the funky decal in the boot? Isn't that the convertible top instructions decal from a SIV?
- Bumperettes missing.
- I don't think the touted vanity mirror was ever an option on the Alpine, was it?
- Looks like it's missing the footwell support panel.
- Wiring looks like the usual happy-Harry has been at it, and now it's a nightmare.
- Brake booster is missing.
- Wrong coil, and its ballast is missing.
- Bonnet pull handle is busted.
- Shift boot missing.
- Incorrect fuel pipe routing in engine compartment.
- Jack missing (probably tools, too)
- Fuel filter looks like it's off a truck!

Look at the rocker panel the seams are filled it. The panels also does not look right? Could be full of filler, difficult to tell without looking close.

Thanks for the insight guys.
I am not that familiar with the later models, so it's good to get some advice.
