[Spridgets] stranded Midget in Linden

[Jeff Van Dyke]

An internet good samaritan (Dan) is there now, trying to find the car, everyone there is russian (it seems) and language is an issue, spoke with him via cell 1/2 hour ago and he was still trying to communicate with them to find the car!
With luck he's tinkering as I type.
I don't know Dan besides via internet forums (fHe's a Fiat guy, we're into X 1/9s too) but we won't hold that against, us, will we?
Fingers crossed, prayers uplifted.

OK Jeff, let me know how things are going, you have my phone number which I
always find calms me down when I have LBC trouble. If they can't do it call
& email and I'll be on my way over there. I'll leave Saturday open for you
and I may even turn some nuts & bolts on my Sprite while I wait to hear from
you. I'll most likely be in my garage Saturday therefore If you post and
don't hear back quickly just call.

Yup that's what it's all about : ) Try and relax now Jeff.
