AH! Here's the europa thread. That's a wild engine setup. Loving that the alternator (generator?) is turned by the intake cam. I'm trying to think here- is there an accessory belt on the firewall side? Probably not, right? No PS, AC...

You Am I posted:There would be one for the water pump. That could be on the timing belt/chain though, right? Love the monster quote for a sentence from Ars tech there.

This car is in my town, if anyone is curious enough about this car, I'd be happy to take a look- I have lift access and all that jazz at my uncles shop in the same area of the county. I don't have a BAT account otherwise I'd have reached out to this guy already- there's a pretty good chance I have friends in common with this guy, car guys are fun to talk to.

Funnily enough, I was over in Watkins glen on friday for the town part of their vintage grand prix weekend. I think I took three photos there, two were of these europas:   These are not large cars.
