A few type-os, but they add to the overall tone. A valiant effort, indeed.

Any thing that involves the absence of a space or an N is because my keyboard is falling apart, other stuff is because from my Ipad thinking it knows better than me, other problems are from copying and pasting between machines, the rest is because I suck at English.

To get the car on its side do you put your hands on the jack pads and give it an explosive squat thrust? Or is it more of a running shoulder into the side?

It was a '62 Meyers Manx buggy. Was pretty rough from the photos but for $600 with an undamaged body and a rolling chassis it was a buy. The guy was a bit hinky when I talked to him on Tuesday so I sensed I might be the back up buyer. Just had too much going on Tuesday to make the 45 mile drive up to Deland to look at it.
