Rik-

There's nothing you can do to a LGC (little German car) that could possibly
be a sacrilege...

I recall an Isetta that had a Corvair motor nestled into it. Now for the good
part <g>, it was painted day-glo red/orange with green wheels and ran as an
A/SR (that's a sports racer as in Can Am style cars) back in the late '60's.
Needless to say the poor thing was a moving chicane, but I really gotta love
the guy who did it ! And yes, I even have pictures to prove it.

See, now that 383/Farina doesn't seem near that silly, does it ?
