Too bad you missed the day I was out in my crusty 68 Westy. I had some gal in a Ford chase me down when I was heading home to Pheasant Run Apts on Stone School Rd. She had the cushion that went over the engine compartment and a westy stool they were going to throw out and she wanted to know if I could use them. Since the 71 and eariler buses are not known for their land speed records, there was no surprise she could chase me down. Besides not many folks where I work are too fussy about parking next to crusty rusty cars... most of our employees have ratty cars anyway. (early 70's Impalla, rust and white vert rabbit, many trucks in disrepar, etc) -Dawn > Sure, but they're so rare around here. > > I used to drive a really rusty, clapped-out '75 > Westy with big Hobie Cat > stickers on the sides.
