Re: 1971 Puma GT
Hi Puma manufacturing only started in 1973 with 73 models having wide base wipers and 74s having narrow based wipers. 1971 is completely impossible as brazillian pumas of 71 vintage had very different bodies. The 375 total number built. I have noly seen 200 number cars with my estimation being that 275 is a more likely number.
you are welcome to talk Puma to me btw look for my puma thread on the forum

mIND = bLOWN - I've been mis-informed.
My Puma has the wide Base wipers... and was originally Red. I say that she's number 42 on the production run because it says "NO 42" under the fiberglass where the " middle rear seat backrest" would be.
I'm going to look for your thread right now.
