So they might presumably be down in between the ally
and the lamiplate... How the heck do you get in
there--can you only get to 'em by reskinning?

Cockpit sides and dash check out ferous metal... the
magnet sticks!

Yeah, that worries me... I've got the car with  me at
work today, and in bright sunlight, the tag in front
of the passenger seat 99.9% surely says "165" Period.
It's a little pock marked, but even with imagination I
can't see any 4th digit, though there is room on the
tag for one...

I photographed this and several details over the
weekend, including all numbers and plates, and hope to
put them on a web page this week for all to have a
look.

Thanks for the input!

PS: Has anyone got "The Legend of the Lotus Seven" by
Dennis Ortenburger, and is it worthwhile at $35?
