Previous message regarding origin of Fram filters does not preclude that
the transfer overseas could not have been made after the filter I have
around was made... I've been looking for some info on the web which
suggests or states recent moves of filter production offshore, but all
I've found so far is a page for the Canadian production facility, which
has been in operation since 1953 or so.  Anyone know where Fram filters
are currently being assembled?

Cheers.
