A Father / Son came to our Coyote meeting..looking for someone to follow them
home afterwards.....FREE drive it away....LM! Even at 55, I wasn't fast
enough to speak up!

snout in the guys driveway.....EPOXIED!! lasted over 60k miles!

burnt piston....]

Baja TransVair...I had a little over $600 in...Kid and I were tired of it after
2 yrs.......He gave me $1800 and the Corsa!! ?????? Does that count??
