Antonio,

I have been to France about a half dozen times - on business. I stayed in Strousburg (excuse spelling) near the Rhine. I was there about 3 months in 1985. A few weeks each on the other trips. I enjoyed every trip. I saw some American made cars their, but they are as rare as French made cars here in the States. I understand how you would not have had much of a chance to understand our lingo on car engines. Hang around and you will pick stuff up in no time. Just remember, we still use that anchient measuring system.

The bowtie comment above was humor as Chevrolet has an emblem that looks like a bow tie. Most Cobra fans frown on putting a Chevy engine in a Ford car, but people do it all the time.
