Do you know who "Rem" is?

Please have a close look at this car's V6 engine installation, and tell me if it looks familiar:

http://www.britishv8.org/MG/Rem/rem2.jpg

Six additional photos of this car appear here: [www.britishv8.org]

As you can see in one of the other photos... the car apparently was registered in Washington state by someone who called himself "Rem".

I'd like to update all the cars in the photo gallery with full "How It Was Done" information. At the very least, I want to get owner first and last names for each car. If I can't do that much, I'd just as soon delete unidentified images from the gallery... Can you help me? Please?

Curtis,
I saw this car at the All British Field Meet in Bellevue Wa, 2003. I'll try to get the information from some club people in Tacoma WA who apparently know who REM is.

RIck.

Last call on this one...

I'm going to pull it from the photo gallery, and I'll reinstate it if/when we find out Rem's last name.

Another cable clutch Buick V6. Might want to keep it Curtis, we don't have that many of those. If just for a visual reference. Anyway, it's sure to turn up again at some point.

Other interesting points, apparently cast iron exhaust manifolds, along with extra steering u-joints.

Jim
