FHC - Fixed Head Coupe (?) does this mean hardtop or is more mechanical
in nature??? Also what does NOS mean???
Here's an email exchange I had recently with someone named Mark Hyman
who I don't know but merely came accross an ad for the car described
below on a web page. Mark's email address is "hymanltd@ix.netcom.com". I
do not have any interest in this car etc...
$29,500(US) seems very steep but there really does appear to be only 8
miles on it. Wonder what a British version of this would fetch (ie.
150bhp, PI, etc).
My exchange with the advertiser (Mark) begins here:
