Hey WittyNorm and Sethmeister, I just talked with "Buttercup" (1976 Caddy
Coupe deVille),
and told her you were talking about all those teeny "Twiggy" new cars and
she was still my
big honking trailer hauler and will be for a long long time !!! <GGG>
Buttercup= 5037lbs/ 235"long/ 130"wheelbase/ 3 horns/
500cubes/ SILICONE BLUE WIRES / 142,000 miles and towing/
and still flirts with every gas station she sees !!! <GGG>
