Ah, another Carolina Rocco owner. Welcome to The List and to the affliction
(oh, he may not know about that, yet.) You'll NEED the Bentley.  Hope you
have another car as your daily driver, the repairs and mods will have your
car in the air as much as it is on all fours.

Hi Marc,
   
  I live in Greensboro, NC.  I bought the car from a guy in Knoxville, TN
and drove it the 4 1/2 hour drive home with no problems.
   
  Thanks,
   
  Eric

  Very nice car! Looks nice. Where about are you located?

As for the recommended maintenance, I don't know as I am an 8V owner. OEM
timing belts for 8V motors are less than 10 bucks.

Cheers.

Marc
