I really do. I just read the Buyer's Guide, and boy!, did
that scare me. Although I'm paranoid many times a day, reading
that just gave me the chills about my newly acquire.
I didn't know parts are becoming scarce.
I wish I had been more aggressive. Or hire someone that can be.
I didn't even rock the suspension, or look underneath. I'm afraid
my front end is lame. Before I get a shot gun, better get second
opinion from MY.
And the brakes...
Wish I had did my homework here before buying..

Don't fret... Parts are still available from our venders as what the the consultants say at my work, "For a slight nominal fee."
Bespa, if you are in town this weekend swing by my house and let take a look at it. I might be able to tell you thing or two and maybe how or where to to get it.
Give me a call, and I work a time. My cell number has changed last weekend (new contract).

Hey at least your beast runs!

I'm thinkin about it.
But, I am in no family climate to pick up another resposibility.
After October my 2nd child, 1st son will be born. I will then test the water if such an idea will flow over with a formal group. Maybe an informal. Maybe annex into an existing formal group that isn't designated by region. No need to rush.
Besides my Roadster aint runnin yet!
