I think it gets spelled (and pronounced) wrong more than right, even by people that own them!

Must have been a re-paint since green wasn't ever a factory color. Hmmm, there's a chance I might know the car - I don't suppose you took a picture, did you? I've yet to ever visit Pennsburg - damn, might have an excuse now.

Indeed it's mostly the Mark III Supra that I have an interest in. I've come across a couple of those at EZ over the years, but it's semi-rare. And yea, I know the feeling about forcing yourself to keep walking, else you end up finally finding the thing you went there for as the closing siren is howling. BTDT.

Hmmm, I might know that one too. What town? Some people think they're sitting on a gold mine, others are delusional about a "future restoration" which they haven't got a clue about where to start.
