Description
The CSL was introduced at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show after being developed as a homologation model for European touring car competition. The “L” variant was distinguished from standard CS models by weight-saving measures including an aluminum hood, doors, and trunk lid, thinner-gauge steel panels, a plastic rear bumper without over-riders, deletion of the front bumper, and fixed Perspex rear side windows. Additional characteristics exclusive to the lightweight model included chrome wheel arch extensions and racing-style hood release…
The CSL was introduced at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show after being developed as a homologation model for European touring car competition. The “L” variant was distinguished from standard CS models by weight-saving measures including an aluminum hood, doors, and trunk lid, thinner-gauge steel panels, a plastic rear bumper without over-riders, deletion of the front bumper, and fixed Perspex rear side windows. Additional characteristics exclusive to the lightweight model included chrome wheel arch extensions and racing-style hood release pins. This example is finished in its factory shade of Golf Yellow (70), with black beltline stripes that were also unique to CSLs. During the restoration carried, the car was disassembled and stripped to bare metal, with areas of rust repaired before application of seam sealer, primer, and paint. New rubber seals were installed, and trim pieces and lighting units were either replaced or refurbished.
