Anyone interested in a quite detailed article re the Proto 1 should look in the "DW Magazine" for Summer 2004 Vol 1 #4". Excellent article by Sascha Skucek with a lot of photos, re Bill Yacobozzi's original aquisition of the car. (and Bill himself!) VERY well documented. In those photo's it sure does not look like it needs any restoration, but then who am I to know!! So many interesting features that did not make it to the production cars. Tan leather. Sliding plexi windows. Full width padded "shelf" below the main dash. Fans BEHIND the four cylinder Citroen mid engine. Engine hood hinged at the rear. Front storage MUCH deeper and hinged at the rear. Bill said he "fired it up" without hesitation in 1984 but never drove it and everything was still original including the original "flat" tires!! It had the same 741 miles on it as when he purchased it.
