JG70RL90200K
Build Date 4/75
Eng T
Trans B
Trim S
Paint E

Missing original engine
Condition: Needs full restoration, missing all running gear.

How do I know if it originally had a vinal roof? What would colour E have been. Car is currently white.
Welcome aboard and great to see another Landau here...post some pics of it in a separate thread! I can't find my paint codes atm so someone else might tell you what E was but to answer your question, all Landaus had vinyl roofs- they shared a specific twill pattern with the LTD's- some will have had it removed but all came with it as standard. Colours ranged through blue,green,brown,white and black.
Your trim code is saddle (beige cream)
What state do you live in? You'll see plenty of helpful info here to aid you on your resto- getting the matching numbers engine would be brilliant whilst difficult but there is a site that locates listed cleveland blocks- again, someone here may be able to point you in the direction of it.

Cheers, Jamie
