It was a special trim done by Ruff in the late 70s for the American market. It was known in Germany as the "ScharfundSchwule" treatment. Here in the states it was marketed as the "Loudundghey" edition. Only a few were imported, mostly to NorCal where they are considered very collectible in certain boutique markets...

Did RUF also include a miniature Disco ball for the rear view mirror?
