It was said the original frame was bent in the accident, and what was acquired by Connie Moore was roughly the front 60 - 70% of the chassis. I know from photos of the car in the Netherlands that it uses a rack and pinion steering setup. Hence major frame replacement is a given. There appears to be a superfluous bracket from the original worm and sector system welded to the left front of the chassis, and since this is the piece that would have the original VIN on it, its existence here is not that surprising. I believe the Bauerle organization in Addison, IL supplied the chassis, and possibly they could recall how much of the original they mated to the chassis they built.
