Yes Ramon,

A 1725 would be cool if I had one. Know of anyone in AL, TN. or GA who might have one for sale? I live in Madison, AL about 15 minutes from TJ Higgins. I would rather have original than hodge podge but I just want to get on the road. The parts car we got from Tom Howard in Huntsville had every thing but engine too. My original plan was ALGER because my car had been completely stripped but after hearing the feelings toward Alger makers I chose to go back Alpine. Now that I have the parts car all I lack is engine, trans and seats. My brothers own a salvage yard so most late model engines are at my disposal. If you can help in finding 1725 please do.
