OK, I did it.



I'm sure the devil made me do it........



Used up the entire Fourth of July weekend on the road... or at least, it

sure seems like it.



Go to:	http://mwd.sugar-land.anadrill.slb.com:8080/



and click on the new link to the Longchamp GTS.



If anyone knows anymore about the car, let me know. It's got over 25,000

kilometers on it now after driving back.



What needs done to it?



It sits too low in the back.

The exhaust gaskets need replacing, bad... (I despise exhaust leaks...)

The leather seats need a good conditioning.

There's a tiny crack in the body near the windshield pillar on the driver's

side.

There's another one at the bottom.

A tuneup is probably in order.

The wheels are the Kirk Evans 'Campagnolo copies'. Both are 8" as far as I

can tell. It needs 10" on the back to fill out the flare more. Am I right

when I say that Pantera East still sells those wheels?
