[DeTomaso] Windshields in Europe

[eb0711 at kolumbus.fi]

Looking at the Italian sounding company website, I can't say I knew for 
sure, but I suspect it's nice sounding one man middle operation for the 
company I mentioned. Nothing wrong with that either, of course. I 
recognize the contact name from local Concourse events, but don't know 
him personally.

So, I doubt it has nothing to do with OEM.
