    I attend AACA shows ever year. Last years show had 4 2002's of which one was mine. I would guess that at least 25% of the cars at the AACA show were foreign. If the 2002 in question won first place it could have been in the first class in the series of awards called the Junior Class where the judges are more forgiving with condition and originality however when you rise up the class structure they are much more strict. I have competed at the Grand National Senior place level and I can tell you that they have judges who are very familiar with the 2002. I had two teams of judges inspect my car both inside and top to bottom which includes underneath the car. They are very strict with originality. The good thing about the AACA is that anyone can compete at some level. There are $5000 cars to multi million cars. They give a venue to everyone in the car hobby. I suspect next year the number of 2002's will double.

    I ordered a custom fit 100% cotton flannel cover from Autochic and then ordered a second custom Superweave Premium cover from California Car Cover. I ordered the Superweave premium cover at a 15% larger size then stock size. I use the flannel cover in the garage. It is thick enough to protect from any accidental bumps in the garage and it is paint finish friendly. When I need to park it out doors I use the flannel cover under the Superweave cover. The flannel cover protects the paint and the Superweave cover protects everything from the elements. Overkill....maybe.

    I have left mine sit for 7 months and it starts right up. Have done this multiple times and have had no problems.

    Not sure how you know which key works. There are several key configurations for locking caps. You need to know the number on the key so you can have someone copy it for you. I am not sure how you do this with out knowing the key number.

    I used to put 4 Vredestein winter tires on and 6 boxes of computer paper in the trunk. Never got stuck. I know Verdestein still makes a 13" snow tire.

    I had to take them off another 74tii. I bought several sets before I found 4 good ones. I never found any in the after market. Good luck with your search.

    Thanks for doing this. I dont see a cost for postage. You need to add that into the cost. Do you have any idea how much postage will be so I can send it along with the cost of the book?
  18. MikeD
    I would be happy with either.
  19. MikeD
    I would love a copy. I would be very happy to pay the costs.

    Do you have any European dash knobs. The knobs that have the drawings for what each knob controls? USA knobs are blank.

    153 is nothing to worry about. I put 210,000 on mine before I started the restoration. It was running well right up to the point that I started taking things apart. It even had the original clutch in it. You will get many more miles on it so enjoy.

    My 74tii came 1029 cars after yours.....I thought they might be a little closer. No telling if your millage is original. Take a look at the brake and clutch pedals...if they aren't wore significantly then the car might only have 53,000 instead of 153,000. Of coarse the pedals could have been replaced but that's unlikely.

    Great car. Mine looks to be your twin. What is the VIN. Also I see you have round relays....is your original spare tire tube or tubeless...both relays and tires were discussed on here several months ago. Just curious what yours are.

    Paul I will take 2.
