Derek -

This brings up an odd question.  I have a friend here
in Hong Kong who has a numbered BN7 from South Africa
with a 3000 engine & disc brakes, but it has a 100/6
BN4 type 4-seater body (ie. sliding mechanism for soft
top.).  This car keeps me very confused.

Could this car be part of this transition period, or
is he just driving a franken-car?  

Thanks,

Alan
