Well, FWIW, the Vermilion 1980 roadster on p.137 of Clausager's book has
a black valance. But then, the back cover shows an original-owner
Flamenco 1975 GT-V8, and it has a body-color valance. So you're not the
only one who has seen them both ways...
Calvin Krug had this to say:

Runs great,
looks particularly bad since some SUV clown backed into it.
If you're near Mountain View, CA,
it's the red one with the silver bootlid.
