Yes, we did get him back. He drove up to see the car, and when I opened up
the door to the garage, there were 3 - 8" long rubber alligators sitting on
the bonnet, the truck lid, and the dashboard. He gave me a big smile and
said something like "I see you've been talking to Mike Jackson".

We had a nice visit, but as already mentioned, he ended up with another car.
