Arguing? Just stating facts that I thought might be helpful to the OP. I am certainly not arguing with you.

manhole cover wheels (god forbid)
I like this one...
Anyway, I appreciate this discussion however I have a feeling that we are drifting away from the main topic
I'm looking for some info regarding this car, regardless of the type of wheels it has on the pictures.
BTW. I put CS wheels I had in hand, they look way better than manhole lids

Look for the frame gussets. Those are the hardest to replicate if you are trying to "make" a Turbo S.

I have these. There is no doubt this car is "true" Turbo S, it is even stated on Certificate of Authenticity. I'm just hoping to get in touch with previous owner(s) of this car to find out little more about it's history.

Not useless, just uninformed

Back on topic, if I read your previous posts correctly, you purchased the car from a shop that acquired it from the previous owner? Have you asked the shop for a name/phone number from the PO? I'm 100% certain that they have the information, they would have needed it to do the title change paperwork. Otherwise, you've got a bit of a deadend, most state DMVs will not disclose previous owner information without a subpoena. Have you tried googling the VIN number? You'd be surprised at how much information comes up from that. Hopefully some of this will help in your quest.

There would be a ton of club racers that would love to see the 030 option on a non S turbo! that way we could use bigger brakes in E stock!

I tried Google first - nothing pops up. I also contacted the shop I mentioned in my first post but the only info I got was basically the story about little fire in engine compartment, nothing more.
