Clearly first iteration carb csl, 1971, no stripes, early alpina wheels, and no trunk badge, verona??
do you have the brochure fully scanned?
If so, i would love to see the detail pics,, i am vv likely now, to take my cs, back to its original verona , for the b2s tribute, and am considering the early alpina wheels as well, with the 20 spoke painted black also..

Sorry for the delayed response. The car on the brochure is Inka actually. Supposedly there was one Verona carb CSL.
The wheels on the car in the early brochure were the Alpina 3 piece found on the B2S.
The interior had early scheel fiberglass seats and a prototype momo alpina steering wheel. It has more dish and spoke holes than the 380 alpina that landed in the later carb CSL’s. It also doesn’t have the droopy hub as seen further below:
These are the alpina wheels:
This is the production alpina steering wheel. Note what I call the “droopy hub”. This style of wheel center is found on the Momo Prototipo S (350 and 380) Momo Clay Regazzoni (350) Ferarri 308 GTB (380), Ferarri Teatarossa (380) Momo gritti (370), Momo Moretti (380) and some
others.
I’ve got three boxes going to three different locations in australia soon if you need me to stick some in there. Shoot me a PM.
Not sure if I’ll run them but I would like a set for my car also.
Thanks markos. I will revert

Moving along quite quickly.
This is the 5th E9 these guys have done now so have used the Walloth repair panels a few times.
New / Repro Alloy trunk purchased from Walloth (made in Poland) has a very good fit out of the box (will need some fettling I am sure).
Now onto the doors and front...

Attachments
Front clip has been completely rebuilt on a jig.
So original fenders, but with the fender channel repair panels used (orange), all of the other "pieces" are new repair panels from walloth..
Finishing the detail then back on! Almost back together.

Happy to see the back of sandpaper for the forseeable future...
Gettting there. Chassis expoxy primed in front, in areas that would be sealed in, followed by underside of entire nose clip expoxy primed, prior to being reinstalled. This should future proof the channels / cubby holes sitting underneath the front fenders.
Waiting to fit doors prior to fixing the lower front fenders (repaired) to the sills.
Try adding the door seals at the same time. I’ve heard the new ones are a major pain. This way your door gaps will be correct.
