Appears to be an excellent example of a MKIV to me. Looks unpolished to me also - very honest original example, I'd be happy to own. [img]http://******.com/ws9eg[/img]

Appreciated. I'll verify the lower, right lug.
When comparing lugs, remember that the two on the right side will be smaller than the left. That's by design to balance the CGs and stem. GMTs are similar but don't know if this applies across the entire model lineup.

Thanks. Never head of the design / balance before. That might explain why the right lugs on my 16750 are a tad thinner than the left hand side.

Fantastic !, love the pictures of your 1680 ,I would like to be able to take pictures of mine to show but my picture taking skills are awful.


Today I have learnt that lugs on the RH side of cases on Subs are thinner/skinny by design , I had incorrectly thought RSC had over polished my 16610 , So I am a happy again after thinking it was ruined
