    I have heard that the motor #2018 is in a Lada Taxi in Cuba.

    Best regards!

    Frank,
    Bookout owns #2017, the sister car. This Frua-wreck is #2018. According to my knowledge the car s still in Fidel`s country of happy communists - but I might be wrong here!

    Ciao!

    You are correct in that 2018 is still in Cuba waiting for the day of liberation.
    2017 was owned by the two sisters, thus becoming known as the "sisters car"

    According to my info the original engine of #2018 is in the US since some years! The car is still in the "Communist heaven under the sun"!
