My car with the Minilites is 914 043 1095
The other car is 914 043 1108 Thirteen apart. My chassis 131279 The other car is chassis 131270 Eight chassis apart My engine is 6404638 The other car has engine 6404639 !!!!!!!! Bingo ! Consecutive engine numbers !! There's more. My friend EJ got his 6 # 1208 a few months ago and needed someone to reassemble it. The car had sat as a stalled restoration since 1991 The engine had been rebuilt but was never started I'm the lucky guy who did the honors. Unbelievably, the engine had been rebuilt by Fred Apgar, who I worked for in 1978 ! Here they are in my driveway today. Attached thumbnail(s) |

My lucky orange streak continues.
There's even a VIN angle to this addition. I recently acquired a very nice numbers matching 914 6 that was delivered new in California.. It's a very rust free, damage-free car. And very complete. This car is exactly 1100 cars older than the Canary yellow car I've owned since 2006. After a nearly twenty year slumber it is awake and runs very well. I can't wait to clean it thoroughly and do all that it needs. I'll be proud to enjoy it much as it appears now. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Rory, How many do you have? I’ve seen pictures of your Orange car with the Minilites, the white one with the flares, you have a yellow one too? Charlie |
