But it doesn't look like "that" legendary hardtop (legendary for 181-freaks), it looks more lie a homemade(?) fixed roof. I have to ask some 181-fans for details.

Safari ◊ 2011-07-20 06:56	It seems to me it is a mexican made Safari due to the red/yellow small rear lights (1971-1973) and 14" wheels (1972-1980). Even when a fiber glass top was available from the factory in Mexico, the one in the movie is for sure not original.
