I don't reckon they'd do too well in your winters.....

I ended up with ours when I lived outside of Visalia. I was riding a road one day and it just stopped going. would crank up but not move. my 18-wheeler-mechanic friend came and got me and said the transmission had dropped. dropped where? anyways...

so I sold it to him for $50. then it sat it in his yard for a couple of years growing grass around it until his wife said enough of that. so he sold it to a guy with 3 young sons for $75. dude pulled the engine and found a pen had broke. cost 25 cents. 25 cents. varooooooom. I heard they passed it down from son to son, so I guess it found a good home. and after it stop going for me, I walked onto a used car lot and drove out in a '69 Mustang Fastback. so it all worked out...

course there was the lil problem of the mustang having no brake fluid and the first thing I did in it was take off on a long mountain drive and... it got a lil rather too exciting.

sometimes I think there is no plausible reason I am still alive.
