Re: Weekend Tire Kicking

["AJ jynx_808" <jynx_808@domain.elided>]

Guilty as charged.  I just bought a '81 Spider and I am extemely fortunate 
in having a mechanic less than 20 miles away who is in it for the love of 
cars rather than the love of money.  Which by the way is a rare thing as we 
all know, but even more spectacular when I reveal that I live in Iowa, not a 
place you'd expect to find an Alfa guru.

Heck, I can't even call him to order parts and get off the phone in less 
than 15 minutes.

Still wet behind the ears Alfa owner,
AJ
