In response to Anonymous post on 2006-06-10; I purchased this car in 1997 from my former brother-in-law, Jorge Manrique, who brought the car to the USA from Italy around 1980.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
