Yeah, I wish they did more of that. I usually like the middle page. But
I've been finding the 8 pages on the latest 3.7 billion dollar car a bit
tedious. Similarly with R&T, Honda's and Super cars is about all you
get. My sister-in-law gives me her R&T's, I read Egan and give them back
along with the Autoweeks. She takes them to The U Hosipital, where they
get distributed in waiting rooms.
My Grassroots, however, get saved.
Hey Phil,
There's a nice looking mid-60's Midget for sale on Como, half way
between
Stinson and 280. And an about 68(?) 'B sitting in Joe Bakers
Repair shop on Como and Stinson for most of the summer. It's not as nice
looking, but the body looks solid. I don't know about it's story.
