mfg Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 (edited) So what's so special about Avanti ll RQA0051? Edited September 18, 2018 by mfg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1lark Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 (edited) It didn't exist? There would have been an Avanti serialed as RQA 0051, however. (4 digits in the serial number, similar to RQA 0049 plate picture below) Edited September 18, 2018 by r1lark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfg Posted September 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 I eliminated the other '0' for brevity, however, I agree with you that it really should be there!....Ed goofed! Now, to answer the question................................. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfg Posted September 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2018 No other thoughts here? HINT.....this trivia question somewhat 'ties in' with the one about RQA0047 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thought, but once again not the reason! (although, at the time these two Avanti ll's were considered to be special ....but not because there was anything special about them!)

Just realized this must be meant for me. When Ed first posted this, the question was "So what's so special about Avanti ll RQA051?" So my tongue-in-cheek answer was it RQA051 didn't exist (but of course RQA0051 did). Ed knew I was just messing with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
