At Shasta 2000, the most amazing sight was watching this fellow sitting in
the back of the 1500 in that sideways seat while his wife drove. His legs
were over the fender and his feet were dangling outside! Mind you, this was
at the park during the Modesto Coast contest. He just looked soooo relaxed
sitting in that 3rd seat, that I could picture doing just that on a slow
drive on a country road. Sigh... I'll probably never have the chance to own
one of these 3-seaters after Andrew buys them up. Hmmmn, what would it take
to add one to a later model roadster...
