      If I can make at least one person smile, or pee their pants a little, or maybe spit out their drink; then my day is not wasted.

              location will be key, but I am certainly interested. I've got almost all the parts from Thunderstruck sold off so the garage is looking empty, and a Std has been on my list for a while.

                                      I am in Wappingers Falls, NY. have p/u tk, and could transport, if not too far. Does it have a stock exhaust system, in decent shape?

                                              Maybe he could beam it to Gabriola Island like they do on Star Trek.
                                              I see a few other willing receivers from Canada.

                                                          Hell yeah! It's only 2 days from here....

                                                          I wonder how much it'd cost to ship?

                                                          And do we have any kind, generous members close by who'd handle the details?
