<VV> Ran when Parked

[Ramon Rodriguez III]

Thanks Smitty,  I fully intend to buy the junkyard primer when I place my
next order with Clarks.... I bought most of the little booklets about 6
months back or a little more and have really been glad I did.. somehow I
missed this one though.  I didn't expect that booklet to tell me what parts
are interchangeable though, just to identify them (much of which info I
already have spread throughout various books I do own).
