    How did I find it? Believe it or not after months of watching ebay, the classifieds, and swap meets, it was a add in the paper. I called and went to look, he said he'd take $1800.00 and I yelled sold!

    And as for plans, I am and will be VERY influenced by the Silva Sedan. What a car.

    It's gotta be chopped at least 6", and channeled 4". Then I'll sell tickets to people who want to watch Terry fold himself into it. :D
