Jay, I saw the car you refer to at Sunbeam Northwest 92 in Victoria It
was owned by a guy named Troy who lives in the Fraser Valley I believe.
He has sold the car and now has a very nice series III which won first
in it's class at VanDusen Gardens ABFM in Vancouver BC in May 97. He
also has a Series I and II which he is restoring too! Can't remember
what he said about where the gold Alpine is - maybe Dick Saunders may
remember as he was there too. Dick??
Tony Leeming
Series II with some gold coloured rust
