Cheers for the great explanation and clarification Dave.
I don't mean to hijack your post so I'll say this then hold my peace.
Your'e right about FAB1 too and I really don't think Parker should have been expected to drive anything less.
The story I read was about a company producing fibreglass fronts for VW Beetles.
They did full fronts with bonnet, guards and grill ( hoods and fenders for those who drive on the wrong side of the road ) and they did cars like the 40 Ford, 36 Chev as well as the Roller.
They did look good though.
But at the end of the day they were still a VW eh.
Bit like the Pontiac Ferrari.
