Didn't meet reserve. Did we ever figure out if this was a real Speedster?
I told the guy he had the wrong engine. He emailed back and said how did I
know since I could not see the serial number (:-)
I told him if he cared he could send me the number and I could tell him what
year engine he had. He didn't care (:-)

I asked about the engine.  He said he didn't know which engine it
was.  Let's face it.  He just wants to sell the car.  Who cares what
engine it is?  Sell that sucker!!   It may need a few things..like
leather interior and fog lights but SELL IT!!

But whether it is a real speedster or not make a big difference in what it
is worth.

Yep, just bought a "fake" R2 Hawk. It has the real engine, just not
matching numbers and I saved about 15H over a "real" one.

15H = $1500 dollars? Doesn't seem like too much of a difference<G>!
