Hi Bob,

I remember that 6mino!  There was one pictured in either a TSOA
newsletter or the VTR newsletter several years ago.  It looked like the
owner had just taken the trunk lid off and carpeted the trunk area.  BUT,
if I recall correctly, ( CRS setting in ya'know!) I think the car had
been lengthened.  Is that car still around?  Anyone know?  I may still
have that newsletter around.  I'll give it a look-see.
