Restart: start wall 4 facing 3 o'clock. Dance up to the end of section 7 – 2 x toe struts, then restart facing 6 o'clock. Easy to do as it is the first time you start the dance facing 3 o'clock and they sing `Coupe de Ville' 3 times at the start of the wall. 

Optional Ending: You start last wall facing 12 o'clock, dance up to section 3 facing 6 o'clock, but instead of swivet after Right forward touch Left, just unwind half turn Left to face 12 o'clock.  

72 counts is unusual for a dance but if you have a track you like for a floor split, knock off the last 8 counts (scissor steps) and the dance then becomes a 64 for alternative tracks easily.
