It looked like somebody pulled it out of storage for the event.  Owner got pissed when I asked if the Emoi sender was one of Chris' repops.  It was the only thing polished on the car.  Anybody know more about it?

Yes, nice to speak with you, too.  Mom told me I need to learn the meaning of the word brevity. Grin  Glad yoiu guys made it home.

I headed straight for that car when I saw the fuzzy brms. I do not know anything about it, but it did have a parking permit sticker from a sf bay area community college on the bumper, so chances are it was in that area sometime.

Yeah, but Bs or Cs because they do not have fins.

C's had disc brakes. Those are "A" drums, the fins are radial.

That thing has everything but the kitchen sink!! I would like to believe it was just dug up, and all those parts have been on there for 40+ years, but I just don't think so. It has almost everything from the 1960-whatever EMPI catalog that you can possibly imagine (except an 010!!!), too good to be true. My guess is that it is an original black paint car that had a whole lotta EMPI parts and a Rajay turbo kit bolted on. Either way, it's a damn cool car.

I hope I'm wrong.
