Hi Steve,
I'm no expert- did you mean to imply that their might be something fishy
when you called it a 'kit car' or were you commenting on the fact that at
least the front of the car is from an Alpine?
I understand why he might be missing the eggcrate grill if his car was
wrecked. I also can see how water bottles go missing. I do wonder why have
so many air cleaner housings and fan shrouds been tossed. Maybe it's the
relative difficulty in finding the oval filter element.
regards
Bob
