I recently acquired a photo of my car from Peter Napier, the man who sold my car to Bob Seidman, who sold it to me (in 1971). It was taken in Paris, probably during 1964. Peter now lives in Massachusetts and I recently tracked him down. To my surprise, he told me he did not buy the car from the original owner (Patrick Schwartz) but from an American serviceman in Paris, possibly stationed at NATO's then headquarters, at Porte Dauphine, or at SHAPE in Rocquencourt. However, he has forgotten the name.
   
   David Sanderson, who rebuilt my car, tells me that an American called Vincent was active in French AC circles around that time, he owned BEX364 at one point. Even if he didn't own my car, it is very possible that he knows who did. Does anyone know of Vincent?
   
   I also understand that a former Chardonnet employee still has some records from that time. Does anyone know who he is and how I can contact him? It is very likely that the car passed through Chardonnet's hands at some time.
