[DeTomaso] NPC - Yenko Pontiac T/A

[Bill Lewis]

Michael, either quit your day job, or find your local "speed" vendor - get on that Mustang project!!  Get your priorities, dude!!  [grinning]  My "used to have" story like yours, now that we are NPC, I used to own two 1953 Corvettes, one was my daily driver - poor kids in college.  Sold them both for $1500.00 to open our first business.    ---Bill
