Phil,
Note speakers on the side of the console? My guess is it has a modern hidden radio and all the rest of the gegaws.
The speakers in this case are integrated into the entire center console piece (the whole thing is one-piece). The thing I noticed that is not correct, aside from the lack of radio or blanking plate, is that the sides of the console where the speakers are is supposed to be black close-grained vinyl, not covered with vinyl of he interior color (in this case tan). It should be black:
But worse than that, the seats appear to be vinyl (should be leather) and notice the "seam" at the center of the seat tops? That's definitely wrong. Also, the seat backs should be moquette, not vinyl. The wheel well area under the bonnet should not have undercoating and the spark plug wires are not routed correctly and they have the wrong spar plug ends - they should be horizontal type with the Champion Bow-tie logo. Also the head should not be gold on this car (although I painted my car's head gold as well). However, even with all these little non-concourse flaws, it is still a very nice restoration. I hope mine comes out this good!
