Hmmmn, I notice a pic that shows a drivers wing window. Didn't Eddie (a
BADROC guy) say he needs one? Of course, he needs a passenger one. But
Eddie, you don't mind the handle being on the outside of the car? Minor
flaw! And that's got to be a few miles from your place (40 from mine and I
don't have space).

Hey BADROC, if someone's got the space in SJ, maybe we can have a
dismantling get-together. Anyone got a Sawzall?
