1) Anyone have a picture of this car?

2) A few years ago I was able to wrangle a parts book from the Chinese Audi 
people (check the OLD archives), and they DO list (sell?) complete body shells.

3) Wonder how much trouble it would be to import a 200 coupe body shell and 
transfer everything from my V8Q to it?

4) The result would be the Audi equivalent of the 560SEC . . . big, fast, 
politically incorrect businessman's express. Yeah, I want one . . .
