        It's perfectly normal to try and collect them all. This happens so regularly now that I am surprised when someone doesn't have 2 or three. Lol
        Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

              Why doesn't the 91L have a name Arty?

                Been busy as that one legged guy...did get to check mileage finally..I live in the Ozarks so the roads are up and down and winding...my everyday average in the hills is 37...on the highway so far 47 after a trip we made yesterday...pretty good! Have a bit of an issue with the new motor in it revs up when you mash in on the clutch...not sure what the deal is..not a huge problem does not bother me that much..would like to figure it out though...it also sputters some once I get up on the black top (a good mile of slow rocky climbing to the blacktop) not doing it because it is still cold..I was thinking it might be something in the fuel tank since it only did it before when the fuel was low...been keeping it almost full and is doing it anyway...you can rev it up higher and it seems to clear...still cannot help but think it is water in the fuel tank...may just have to run it out and drop the tank.

                    Going through a lot of transmission oil also...one of the axles seals I am assuming...loses it while running..not leaving a puddle...also oil on the back glass. Going to order new struts for it Friday before Monroe's debate expires.
