Great Car! One suggestion - arcor would like to see the BIG goggles on the passenger, down on the eyes and not above the eyes. <!-- s:shock: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked" /><!-- s:shock: -->

Here are two pictures of my Auburn 851 Cabriolet Special (no
rumble seats and spare tire at rear end!) "in action" on a mountain
rally here in Switzerland.

Owner: Mario & Petra von Allmen; Ennetbuergen, Switzerland

Some data of the car:

The car was owned by late Dr. Forbes of Phoenix (AZ) before I bought
it at Hershey in October 1995. Before shipping the car to Switzerland
in mid 1996, the seat and the top was redone by Frank Smith of
Oklahoma City and also some rechroming of diff parts was done in OK
City (I was living in OK City in 1994-1996). In Switzerland I
replaced nearly all the rubber parts (including engine gaskets) and
the car got a complete new electrical system (btw turning signals are
required here in Switzerland)! The dual ratio rear end is perfect for
driving it here in the mountains.

Kindest Regards

Mario von Allmen
