Yep, I have the data from the DMV in England. Pretty neat stuff.

What is interesting about this car was that it was imported in 90? That means it had a phase 3 motor. As I understand it, it had a pre production 4 bolt motor in it when found in the graveyard. This means the phase 2 motor was pulled long before it was shipped overseas.

I'll ask Geoff which motor it had when it jumped the pond.

Since my car was imported twice to the UK, it had two different registrations and UK plate ID's.

First registration 1988

Second registration 1990

This confirms my thoughts. I knew from conversations with Geoff that the car was in England in 88, which ment the 90 import info did not match what I knew. I figured it must have been imported twice and that confirms my suspisions. That is from Geofs pictures of the car the first time when he had it in 88.
