gr8 stuff

NCRS should read those to make sure the tops have odd paint blobs on them

plus the FI should have metal filings in the fuel system in order to be "correct"

Wow! That's some neat stuff! That one letter is pretty harsh but it's understandable after spending that much money. Now these are the people that really remember how these cars really were, not through rose-colored glasses 40 years later, and they watch the televised auctions nowadays and just wonder how such troublesome cars back then can command such crazy prices today!

It'd be cool to track down where the car is now and reunite the paperwork with the current owner(s)!
