Today I went to the Estate Sale of a friend for over 30 years. It must be well
over 20 years since I've been in Jim Vanhoven's (The LA Chapter President
when I first Joined The Morris Minors Owners Club) garage. even now with
tables set up to sell his stuff it was pretty tidy. I got a few things I
wanted including, the hard to find in the states, late model heater return
pipe that I need. but up on a nail above one of his work benches was a
mahogany shift knob that I made for him so long ago. Yea I asked for it.
