Oh, so you're the DPO! Congratulations on the good fortune, and on the
continued good luck in that it never fell apart later while you were
driving it. Some people just live right I guess. >>

Actually, this was back in the '70s when there were a lot more British cars
on the road, dropping parts for others to find. I suppose that back then, in
my early 20's, I would have been considered a DPO, but I was broke and having
a ball with British Iron.
