All,

I am trying to track down Carrera Speedster #83208. The registry database has the last known owner listed as L. Freeman. Does this ring any bells with someone?

many thanks,

Congratulations, your persistence and diligence paid off, 2.5 years later! It encourages me to resume my search.

Does your engine belong in the EC Speedster? That would be fortuitous, and EC would be interested in helping.

A cheesy wood steering wheel in an expensive car like that? Curious.
