I'll second Bill's findings.  I spent about 20 minutes with Harvey Siegel
talking about his black and gold Elva Courier.  He had introduced himself,
but at that time, about 6 years ago, I had no idea who he was.  Nice guy.  

I later got pointed to the non-descript Quonset hut in western NJ where his,
and a few other high rollers cars were maintained and stored.  I stopped in
one afternoon and got a nice tour by one of the mechanics . . . . . . Wow!
Bill, after seeing that, if you can get me in to see the Hart collection one
of these years, I can die a happy man.  <grin>
