Normy,

Agree and I still have friends in Germany and Spain who get me to bring over spare bits for their 1950's and 1960's American cars when I head to Europe. Last time was a complete convertable top for a 1960's Buick, something that is just not available in Europe.

Lots of people over there, and in the UK like the old Yank cars, no matter how low the fuel mileage is.
