<<Maybe we could get em to take the front seat out of one of those, and let us just sit in the back.>> Once I lower, tilt, and scoot the seat back in almost any car, that is pretty much what it looks like anyway. Kind of hard to believe that in college, I drove my Dad's old (hand me down) original issue '73 Honda for a couple years -- but what a reliable car it was even if it was not flashy and fast; and besides, in those poverty years, any car was A-okay. $1300 new off the show room floor a few years earlier; a better bargain was never had. As I recall, it had a 2 cylinder 600cc engine and weighed less than 1200 pounds. It was an easy lift for a few motivated college kids after a few too many beers. We once crammed 10 people inside it -- in hindsight it was amazing that the suspension did not fall apart as the people in it weighed a good 50% more than the car. They, truly, don't build em like that any more. Troy PS - SI spell check update: "em" is spelled right, but "internet" is not?
