Re: [T3] What is this?

<x-flowed>Damn Neil, great detective work!  And to think I *almost* was going to 
throw it away...eek!

Here's the car:
-BN2 gas heater
-factory sunroof
-fuel injection but no dashpot (engine was rebuilt so...)
-automatic
-red tail lights (look like typical late model tails)
-dual circuit brake system w/warning lamp
-no side markers (rats!) and no wiring to indicate they were ever there
-rear glass defroster
-M616 ? The brake circuit failure lamp works but it doesn't illuminate 
when the automatic is put in reverse
-original AM radio
It was supposed to have come from Canada but the speedometer is in mph, 
however, it looks like it's supposed to be there i.e. looks original.  
But the second or third or whoever owner could've had it swapped out 
when it was brought into the US.

In my opinion, it seems to be a US car that just happens to have a gas 
heater installed by the factory (or maybe a VERY caring dealership!).
