Re: Apology
After half a decade I would like to make some reflections on this car situation.
I don't know if Mike Guarise still owns the white one but he did at the time and Gary Daniels still owns the silver one.
I did not back read this thread to refresh myself on what all has been said but this is my personal opinion on the cars and I don't foresee any new evidence ever coming forward to change things.
We all know Mr. Knafel claimed they got these from Engineering with RAV's in them. According to Arlen Vanke they had the motors in it that they received from the factory. He said it went to engineering before it was shipped to Knafel. Arlen was specifically referring to the splayed block with special numbering that was with the Guarise car; there is only one other block like this known in the world that is damaged and in the hands of another RAV collector.
Both are Memo cars and IMO they both received these one off blocks but retained the IV top end from engineering which lead to Mr. Knafel referring to them as RAV cars.
There are three other unknown facts that I cannot share; I was asked not to, that lend a heavy hand in favor of this theory.
