Eddie,
Hmmm, my 1981, 68k mileage, never been wrecked, all
original, Spirit for $20???? You can not imagine how
tempting that is, but you see I have this 304 w/auto
tranny waiting to be picked up in Fort Worth, and
installed, that I think will justify the poor MPG. And
I would hate to saddle a friend as good as you with it
now, as it is a gas guzzler, and you have those boys
to provide for down there where all them Illegal
aliens be comming to live and work.
