Nostalgic is in Wixom Michigan. Would that be drivable for you? He sometimes has cars for sale.

Any idea on how many came from the factory with a manual 3 speed? Don’t get the logic. Seems like the correct number should be zero! Mike

If the engine bay is that bad what does the frame look like?

Plasma cutter?

I do kind of like the added visibility of two rear signal lights blinking instead of just one. The problem is, you can have all the visibility in the world and it won’t protect you from impaired drivers or the people staring at their phones. Safe driving! Mike

I did that with mine. Got the replacement lenses from Nostalgic. Also replaced bulbs with LEDs. Backup lights are way better. Mike

Is it just a glue on? Should be easy to find one of those.

No flat panels?

These are from Bob Johnstone’s Avanti registry. The car has possibly been sold to someone in Oregon. Mike

I have some original brochures that came with R2696. Be glad to mail them to the current owner. Bob Johnstone shows the last owner in Ontario Canada but not in the AOAI registry. Mike

Don’t know about rebuilding an original but Crutchfield has retro radios. Mike https://www.crutchfield.com/shopsearch/retro_radio.html

It seems like I can get a whiff of exhaust in my car but only when going down the road with the windows down. I’m wondering if the same great aerodynamics that don’t allow any buffeting with the windows down also allow the exhaust to work its way into the cab. Anyone else noticed this? Mike

Crutchfield has retro units and they are pretty knowledgeable and helpful on the phone. Mike

What size tires and wheels are on it?

If only Dan at Nostalgic had time to make “how to” videos out of his treasure chest of knowledge. Thanks for doing that Blazest. Mike
