Uh...... as I opened my original email.  It isnt that I dont believe anyone 
about the Solex option "stuff".  And certainly I cant be called a nit picker. 
 Especially since I have done things to my 67.5 that would make it 
unoriginal.  Red interior...?  Please!

But I understand how my original email may have been taken incorrectly so I 
will redo it to make it sound more appropriate.  

Is there a way to distinguish which cars were original Solex cars?  I know 
that in 1967 is was a dealer option.  In 1968-70 the carbs were not options 
but rather a parts counter purchase due to emission controls.

I was wondering......  ;>)  if there is a way to tell which cars were the 
original Solex cars.  Is the ID tag marked 150hp?  How about you Canadian 
folks...?  Your cars didnt come with smog equipment.  Did it?  Maybe in 
Canada 1968-70 cars were also dealer options.  Were they?

Thanks you,

Calspeed
