Yeah,after talking to Sandy a few years back,he did say if I remember
the conversation correctly,that,not to many people would realize how
rare the car is.
They would see that it doesn't have the V-8.
Not knowing that there was only 6-8 of these to roll off the line in
86.
I think the only folk's who would know about this are the members of
this group.
Like I said though I plan on posting some pic's in a few week's,after
seeing the car maybe you folk's could throw some number's at me?
Than's again
