I was saddened to see the current state of Landy's AWB car recently. It has been over restored now with slick reproduction interior panels and overly straight body and paint work. Guffey had it right when he performed an era correct cosmetic restoration on Dick's old Dodge back in the late 80s. In my humble opinion, that car should've remained a little rough around the edges with its Landy dyed OEM interior panels and blue tinted side glass.
