[Roadsters] Original owners...was twisties

[tputland at charter.net]

Nearly identical?....Closer than that!. I also gave my Dad a $1-- incase the
local DOT or what ever made a stink over the "gift" of a car. I have, as well,
all the original paper work, receipts, etc and have asked my kids for a scrap
book of some sort to put it all in to preserve for, well, ever.

I am not going to sell my car to my kids, ever, unless they learn how to drive
a stick shift. They must, however, learn to drive a stick on someone else's
clutch plate, bearings, etc. ;-)

have all the original books, all service records since new, etc. B Someday, my
daughter will have the opportunity to buy it from me; however, I'm going to
sell the car to her at double my purchase price, to recoup my investment.
