I am absolutely amazed at the power of the Net!
Within a matter of hours I had half a dozen e-mails and 3 phone calls - 2 of them long distance - about the Alpine I was trying to get rid of.
In the final analysis a fellow came over from Vancouver - looked at the car - made a deal with me and had it towed to a friend's place in Victoria until he can get it over to the Mainland. He generously gave me $200 and towed it away before my repair garage man had to deal with it on Monday morning (he has limited parking too.)
Anyway the long and short of it is - it's gone! One less stress in my life.
Seriously, thanks to all of you who responded. I just did not realize there were so many Net-nuts who are also Alpine-nuts.
But check with me next week - I just found a Series IV - with 1725cc and a pretty good body which has been abandoned. NO I WON'T TELL YOU WHERE! iT MAY BE STOLEN BUT i CAN'T GET THE HOOD OPEN TO GET THE SERIAL NUMBER. You know what Alpine hood releases are like - one needs a hefty axe to get in there!
Good luck to all fellow sufferers from the Alpine virus.
