Spot on noting the dealer, which many along Lake City Way are of the sketchy variety.

do you feel the same about the dried style?

I feel the pain and have resorted to using the search function to get here a bit faster.

GMAB. Give me a break.  

This glitch is too amusing.  At first, it was like WTF?  Big Brother?  For me, I got a recently watched tube on Volvo Penta Marine engine overheat issues.  I thought for a moment you were advocating a Volvo Penta diesel in place of the Corvair.  Bwahahaha.

scrap money sums it up perfectly.

Sturdy. Yes. I had one new in ‘74, albeit an autobox. It had some issues; electrical and with the wheels causing the tires to go flat all.the.fricken.time. I could walk faster than this could accelerate. It handled like an old lady mobile.
