Great curves on early units. Runs primarily on flowers and chocolate
which are much cheaper than gasoline these days. Overheating and getting
steamed under pressure is still an issue, but much better warming system
for those cool evenings out with the top down. As usual, avoid the rusty
models and any that have extensive filling with bondo.
I've committed to a number of these units and found maintenance to be
extremely costly, especially at time of trade in. Also, I cound watches and
diamonds to be necessary in addition to the flowers and chocolate.

As he stared at her ample bosom, he daydreamed of the dual Stromberg
carburetors in his vintage Triumph, highly functional yet pleasingly formed,
perched prominently on top of the intake manifold, aching for experienced
hands, the small knurled caps of the oil dampeners begging to be inspected and
adjusted as
described in chapter seven of the shop manual.
