Has that first one got clear side repeaters, or is the lens just missing?

no its the lens missing lol. look at the bumpers they are sport ones. look how the rear bumper is all smoothed in with no line. and it has a blanking plate on the pass door where the mirror would be. i bet that is very rare

The sport came with standard bumpers the smooth/no line at bottom of bumper was a standard pre 89 spec.

and what can you notic about the first one
The license plate says DOOD :D actually i thought O's weren't used as it looks too much like a 0? or do they just use O's and not 0's? :confused:

The cream Nova has the same front and back bumpers as my Antibes so I'd say it is pretty much standard...?
