[Nobbc] JH IS NOT LOTUS

Thu Sep 23 20:27:20 MDT 2010

Hi Andy.
You might be able to find your JH on the JHPS website.  Many owners have 
posted there information including VIN number.  They also have a page of 
cars and items for sale in the Market Place.  For me JHPS was an incredible 
resource for 907 information.
