Sometimes you have to wonder...

This morning I put the slightly bent driveshaft from my F/P Midget into the
back of my truck so I could take it to the shop to be straightened.  Well,
on my way to work I stopped at the racquet club for a morning workout (this 
is in a 'nice' neighborhood) and upon my return the driveshaft was gone.
By the way, I stuffed it into an old pair of levi's to keep it from rolling
around in the bed of the truck.  I know, this is a sad story (for me anyway),
but it makes you wonder what people are thinkin' (assuming that they are
thinkin'  :-[ ) "look an old pair of levi's in the back of this truck, let's
see what's inside.  Wow a driveshaft, and what luck it looks like it's for
a Midget, let's take it".

Enough whining.  The reason I'm really writing this is to find out if anyone
on the list (probably in Northern CA.) has a driveshaft for a Midget they'd
like to get rid of.  Or, any good sources, wrecking yards, Pegasus, Mini-mania,
etc. that would have a 'reasonable' priced one to sell.  By the way, what kind
of price range should I be looking for to replace this little dude.

Anyway, thanks for any tips
