        Sorry Rich I think its been long enough to laugh about it I hope.

        Yup, I can testify to that. I was right behind him and saw the lights come on the DPS car.

          Anyone have a source for those red lenses in the rear for a Standard? Steve posted one many years ago, but not there anymore.

            Was great to meet you as well. Looking forward getting plates on it and running up some miles. Not going to abuse it in the ibr though, have a few plain jane 78's for that. This one is way too nice for that.
            For those in the area I got a few boxes of parts with this to add to my collection, so if you need anything give me a shout. Prices usually start at 1 cold one and top out at about 6. Only requirement is that you need it for an active project.

              Hi Scott,
              Nice find. Thanks for preserving a fine example of the Venturer.
