I'm pushing 36... so it's a little over 20 months...

Trust me they can be won over... I'm getting married in just under a month.
If I sold the A and didn't replace it with as good or better car I would be
shot. She never liked my beater 70B, but she has fallen in love with this
iris blue '64B that's partially restored. Little does she know I'm trying
to get it completed before the wedding, if I don't stop hitting stupid
things the PO did I should make it. We are also taking my dad TF1500 on the
honeymoon, first hitting wineries in the Sanoma County area, then heading
down to Monterey for the GoF West.

I hate to tell you that U2 is older then you! Jeez such a limiting music
selection, the early 80's were great for music out of England...Clash,
Elvis Costello, Ian Durry & the Blockheads, The Beat, Specials, Selector,
UB40, Police, Sex Pistols, Colourbox, Level 42, Schreikback, General
Public, Graham Parker, Jam, Style Council, RockPile. But please no
Bananarama.

If it's an XJ6 that might be okay... don't waste a perfectly good sports car!

Cheers, Lane
