Sewbizgirl, I am not so sure that ISMACS does need to be updated or that they are referring to the Lotus as the Egyptian. The Sphinx is usually the one referred to as the Egyptian. The 'scroll' that ISMACS is referring to is a broad term because the one we call the Redeye is not listed and that was the most popular decal for the 66. I would guess (just a guess) that ISMACS lumped the Lotus and Redeye under scroll. Anyway, the only machine they really broke down in years was the Egyptian, which is probably the Sphinx. The 66 with a Sphinx is really rare as they were only made very early on in the 66.
