I suspect so, didn't Empi sell to Filter Dynamics in '72? Whatever, I've never seen a picture of Inch Pincher Too with any wheels other than BRMs, so those 13's just look strange!

Cool pictures Fabs, I don't remember seeing any of them before! That must have been just before the car disappeared - when was the last time anyone is aware of it being seen?
