| Hello and good luck with the project! Is it the Felicia cabriolet (hmmm... maybe not in Alaska...)? Our local Skoda stealer has a red and white cab in the showroom. It's in a rather bad state (which doesn't improve confidence for the company) but nevertheless a beauty. |

| Hello - and welcome to Briskoda. It would be good to hear a bit of the history of the car, and how it came to be in your possession in Alaska. I can't imagine there are many of them there. Perhaps a few photographs as you go along would be interesting too. Keep us posted please.
