Re: Pacer For Sale - Mine

["Ross Guistino" <rossg@xxxxxxxxx>]

sorry, that was an joke meant for Nolan.  Didn't mean to reply to the
whole list.  It's late in the day....need to go home................

But since I'm here, I personally helped Mr. Dehner trailer this car to his
garage and have seen it up close and personal.  It is a great car, rides
tremendously and is quite a catch for the lucky person who meets Nolan's
offer.  And he does indeed start and drive it regularly.

IMHO it is worth much more than $1600.  Someone please take this off of
Nolan's hands so I don't have to listen to him go on and on about how it
is taking up his third garage.  :-)
