I understand he is an American military stationed in Naples, which is why he refers to EPA and DOT exemptions. There is no way that a European citizen can buy this car...only American military, or once imported to the States, an American citizen. Believe me, I investigated it...

I emailed Chip a few weeks ago, but no response...I imagine he has gone back to the States. Hopefully he didnt end up parting it out...it would have been a waste.

From what I understand he found the car in Berlin and got it for peanuts...
