posted
"inquiry 120498h" on Friday, primarily asking where they are available.
So Here I'm reposting an older message from when I first found out =
about
them...

BTW, I counted the parts over the weekend; it's not 100, nor the 40 =

Stephen suggests. discounting duplicated parts like the two sets of
wheels I ordered and the LHD/RHD dashboards, I cam up with 72 pieces.
This includes, amazingly, individual inside door pulls, release handles
and window cranks!
