I am doing this out of the kindness of my heart, you understand, and you *know* that I'll make sure that the battery is charged monthly (20 minutes on the highway is an excellent way of doing that), that it is repositioned regularly in the garage (to avoid those nasty flat spots on the tires), and I'll never, ever let the gas in the tank go bad by letting it sit for too long. You know, the fire chief I work for is storing a brand new 1997 Harley Davidson Lowrider in his garage until it's raffled off in October, it's just taking up room next to his H-D Bad Boy, and I've offered to take that one off his hand's as well, so maybe the 'vert and the Harley can be stable mates for a while. You know you can trust me, old buddy, pal, how 'bout it? David Walters '73 Notch '92 H-D Sportster '71 Ghia Convertible (?????...well?) P.S. You going to the Sun-N-Fun show in West Palm at the end of June? I'm going to try and make it, looks like a pretty sure thing. Maybe I'll see ya.
