[DeTomaso] Ramblings

[gow2 at rc-tech.net]

I have been trying to get all the other projects out of the way to get
focused on the Pantera again. I got through mowing season last year using
90w gear oil in the crank case of the tractor. Everyone thought I was
fogging for mosquitoes. It will be nice to get it back.
