<VV> Ted's Auto clean out

[D. Barry Ellison]

Hear Hear!

"My truck <and my trailer> runneth over."  We were there "on time", right at 
12pm, and there were already piles made.

My short bed pickup is sitting in the yard mounded over with stuff from 
Ted's home and shop.  The trailer is covered with doors, a deck lid, a hood, 
about 6 bumpers 3 of which have bumper guards, and shelves.

My dear ole dad, you have to watch him every minute.  We turned our back and 
all of sudden, he'd purchased 2 vans and the EM water damaged 4 door.  :S  
Oh crap, how to get them home?  It's not like we don't have 30 cars sitting 
around with parts in them already!  Regardless, we're heading back tomorrow 
with 2 trucks and 2 trailers for another day of Corvair parts transport.

Thanks to Ted for allowing us to participate in finding all these parts a 
new home.  Thanks to Chuck for letting us know of the sale.  Although 
everyone left happy, I'm sure it's bitter sweet for Ted.
