Re: P/1083 Refresh Pictures

These pictures are great. The very type to learn more about these cars. With these it has become apparent that:

1. The tank in the front that was believed to be an oil tank is in fact a fuel cell.
2. The oil lines that I saw going to the front in an earlier post are in fact going only to the oil cooler that is mounted behind the radiator.
3. The oil cooler that is in the original location for Mark I's is the transaxle cooler.
4. The motor was apparently changed from a dry sump arrangement when Fran took pictures of it to a wet sump motor.
