Doc, I recently purchased Islero #6129, and it has also been titled as a 1967, which I have been meaning to ask about. But I"m not sure if you just answered it. I have an EPA release for Islero #6318, for licensing reasons, and was told I did not need one for #6129, as it was titled as a 1967. My question, was this a pre March 1968 import, an error on the title, or some strange roundabout way of beating the system for EPA regulations? Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks for any help in this matter, Mark Wesenberg Islero #6318 & #6129 On Sunday, February 23, 2003, at 11:05 PM, docmirror wrote: > Udo, >Well, we now know the build of your car.
