Engine Swap '82 GT???

[cobram at juno.com]

I recall seeing a few "Brumos" modified Porsches over the years, figured
they were just some tuner.  Sounds like the Brumos Porsches may have been
ones modified by this dealer.  
There must have been an article or two in the auto rags over the years
about these GT's, if anyone digs one up, could you post it?  Sounds
interesting, especially the part about Audi honoring the factory
warranty, or maybe Brumos offered their own warranty?  

Thanks for the info, interesting stuff.
