I can confirm Harold's comments. I inquired with Smitty about the car
and he commented that most of the changes on the Harrington were
cosmetic, basically body and trim stuff. He had never personally seen
a LeMans with differing mechanicals than an Alpine. Though he did say
that there may have been factory options available.
