Don says, when they rebuilt the injection unit, they noticed markings by engineers and other marking on the underside of the injection unit. Don learned from another dealer friend about this car and worked to find the car. The car had been put back in inventory on the lot and a man bought the car. GM called and wanted the fuel injection unit and car back, but he said "NO!". The car was traded back and Don found the car and bought it. He brought it back to the dealership in Iowa.
