[Shotimes] Added another SHO to my fleet.

After looking closely I discovered that the front seats have been recovered
and rather poorly at that.  Thais one looks like it is going to be mostly
mechanical parts and electrical parts.  The body totally trashed, the visors
are bad, the carpets are soaked and stained, the leather shift knob has been
replaced with a plastic one, the sunroof control console is hanging from the
ceiling, and it basically drives like crap!

But...  The motor is strong, tranny sounds fine (the reason I bought it)
brakes are new.  It has lots of good mechanical goodies.
