>>>Purchased Oct '89, and driven from L.A. to San Francisco.  First car 

I'd ever owned.  Didn't even have a driver's licence!  Had only driven a 

car about 5 times in my life!



Suspension/bearings/electrics dismantled and repaired during Oct '89.



Driven flat-out to Oklahoma Nov '89 (California to Wichita Falls, TX in 

18 hours!)



Parked in December.



Driven four times in 1990.  Caught fire three times in 1990! (Got lucky 

once!) :>)



Send off for restoration Oct '90.  Haven't driven since. :<(



But Ed Kornegay has me beat; his was perfect when he bought it, he drove 

it a month and tore it apart.  Ten or eleven years ago! Hasn't driven 

since!  :>)



Mike
