charley......this sure is an intresting thread for sure......i'm wondering if the L35 engine could be from one of the CEC test vehicles since they were just going to tear the engine down and blueprint it anyhow, so the vehicle it came from might be one of the one's that got "crushed". anyhow all the bickering aside. the fact that the car is still around and "saved" is all that really matters. hope i get to see it in person someday.
