It's takes one bit of BS from a poster and he's in the kill file. We have allot of knowledge out there and it can be shared without the likes of some posters. As far as I know no one will read this because I'm already in their kill file. I do get an occasional chuckle when dave's remarks show up in others posts. It takes all kinds, if you don't believe that you haven't been watching the campaign. -- Dad 04 C5 CE Z51 72 Shark Black/Black/4spd |

Actually I know a lot of people that have shopped for a wife as you put
it. Guess what they got burned. They are divorced now. It just proves human or auto everything has hidden flaws no matter how much you research it. If you have all the time and money in the world to check every car you are interested in good for you. All I'm saying is that some of us that are money and time challenged have to use other means to get what we want. Sometimes we lose but not always as you would imply. |

> Sorry to disappoint you Dave, but my vette got here. Beauty, runs Just so you don't get the wrong guy ****ed off, the idiot spells his name "dave", not "Dave". Or just call him "dickhead", he answers to that as well. -- Shut up, Dave. -|>|- Diode -|<|- '68 L-79 Coupe '79 Triumph Bonneville |

Hey...im glad that you didnt end up the Fool that i think you are
It doesnt get much sillier than giving someone tens of thousands of hard earned dollars for something youve never even seen in person ...let alone driven ! Count yourself very fortunate. |
