fred,that pic isnt brilliant but to me it looks like the correct fishscale lid on the console..
as for the silver/chrome fascias...when i was involved in the extensive research that went into the reproduction hq gts fascias we could not 100% find proof that they existed, but we did find pictures that showed them but these were not backed up with part number changes..
we spoke to all the old guys and true experts and the best we came up with was that the silver fascia could not be ruled out as being there in very early models..first couple of months in hq 1971 models..
it was the public that wanted the silver/chrome fascias because they believed it was right..needless to say they were done and thats the story...
one thing that was found was that early gts fascias had a grey transluscent paint over the chrome scales and then was changed to a green tinge over the chrome.
as for adr changes in paints for non reflective surfaces we could not 100% pin that one down to a date but conclude it was again in 1971.
