> Well, sooner or later it had to happen. Two Midgets (not running, of
course) just weren't enough. I drove up on the Cumberland Plateau last
night and checked out a (hopefully) bargain priced '71 Midget. It's red and
has been parked a few years, but fortunately parked in a garage on blocks
with a treated fuel tank the whole time, which is rare. The car is
complete, clean, with a clean engine compartment. Slave cylinder is off the
car, so who knows what that means. He said he thought the slave cylinder
was bad and had started to replace it. Knowing my luck, the clutch is bad.
If all goes to plan, I'll go pick it up this week and tow it to a mechanic
(I don't have time to check it over right now).

100 miles to look at a car that doesn't run to add to a collection of other
cars that don't run. :-) Anyway, I'll keep you all posted. I am getting
screwed by Comcast's changeover this weekend (from @HOME) so probably won't
be able to check email again til tomorrow...
