Re: Humpster Irony

The 70 AMX two seater being mistaken for a Torino is a bit odd! I could see the humpster called that (by someone without a clue, naturally!) because it is at least closer in size. 

There are more humpsters out there than any other Javelin, especially still on the road. More chance that someone's seen one! There's still one running around my home town in SC -- I remember the guy who had it when I was in high school -- Mitchel Rish. He was in my brother's class (two years above me). Don't know who has it now, will have to talk to bro when I'm back. 

Now that last one is real funny Fred!!
