The butler did do it!.. :/ .. Sorry to hear that brother Evans, time to bail or remove the turbo system outright and run her into the ground. Here's my naughty dream boat: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=6304&item=2427081386 Sigh.. Totally impractical or course - but what a sweet, sweet cruiser.. Can take the potholes, if none of the corners, too.. Smaller than they look in the pictures actually - about the size of a RCMP pursuit cruiser in these parts.. -- J Dexter - webmaster - http://www.dexterdyne.org/ all tunes - no cookies no subscription no weather no ads no news no phone in - RealAudio 8+ Required - all the Time Radio Free Dexterdyne Top Tune o'be-do-da-day Dogg Kane Bootsy Clinton - Undercova Funk http://www.dexterdyne.org/888/041.RAM
