    Cool story and I think I never posted that, going back at least 15yrs, bought two Fuchs wheels 7Jx15, dated 3.73 from a guy in Lebanon for my car. No, they were not blue as seen in the pics but fair chance they belonged to the same owner as 1247. Harvey restored them for me....

    Regards,

    Cees

    Brings back memories of when I found 300129 in the mountains above Beirut back in 2007. It had been poorly converted to a G series widebody in fiberglass with whaletail and everything and was being advertised in a local paper as a '68S. I didn't know enough back then to understand what it was, and didn't think anything more of it (I thought the smooth engine bay latch panel was poorly done collision repair!). Talk about one that got away...

    Realized that the full VIN is not listed for search purposes.

    VIN Reference = 9113601247
