        Uhh, correct me if I'm wrong here-the rear busmount was used on
'68-'71 models, right? And these models came with respectively, '68-'70
1600SP and '71 1600DP, right? So who in thier right mind would put a 1300
in thier '68-'71??? Just a thought...   ;-) Although if some masachist
*really* wanted a 1300 in his breadloaf, who am I to say no?  ;-)

Peace,
