Fw: <VV> Engine rebuild fantasy (astro engine)

[Dave Morris "BigD"]

That kind of stuff just pisses me off.  Instead of getting the Astro, which 
we all want, we get things like the Pinto, which nobody wants.  Just about 
the time Mitsubishi perfects the 3000GT, they discontinue it.  Sometimes 
automakers deserve all the Naders they get.
