I'll 2nd that emotion. My 1st car was a '72 GT6. Dumbest thing
I ever did was trade it for an X-1/9. Last year, my 20 yr.-old
nephew took me out to see the new Austin Powers movie, 'Shagged.'
During a scene on Carnaby Street, as I was in riverie wondering
w h a t a s s i s r e s p o n s i b l e f o r t h e
d i s a p p e a r a n c e o f t h e M I N I S K I R T ?!!!,
a GT6 flashed across the screen. Oh, man, they got me at a
vulnerable moment. So now I own another one.
Gonna kill that kid....
