Eric post a copy of the build info. Have you gotten a copy of the build sheet from the NCM. There is also one in the frount suspension.
Ed how about coming to the reunion this year and bring your photos? Your graveyard stories would be a real hit. Miight even be able to coax Geoff to come too.

Ed Not true. This car was not like the others. See the SPI:

AR9 Manual European seats
UM6: Non bose radio
60C Saddle Cloth Seats
Missing AQ9 Sports Seats

Would be an interesting collection 86,88,89. Maybe we could get one of the narrow body units from the heritage.

Here is the same car now, unless there were two of them. There "are" subtle differences between the two cars.

Car was built on 88 production line. Thats what the 'after 6920' means on the spi. ie build behind 88 s/n 6920. Mine has same info on build sheet but on the 87 production line.

Yes on 4/19/88 if you look at the build sheet fragment on about page 6 of this thread you will see it says "kick in behind 16920".

What ever happened to Geoff's '87?

heck, for that matter, what ever happened to Rupp's '89, Yager's, and Roebuck's?
