Last year I was going to have my De Lorean towed to a shop that specialized in fixing electrical systems in cars, and when the De Lorean was on the tow truck, the driver tried to use those lights that get attached to the cars he is towing with the magnetic side of it, and I told him that it wasn't going to work, but he said that he has never seen a car its never worked on. So, after he tries to stick one of the lights on the hood of my car and it doesn't stick to it, he said that this was the finest stainless steel he has ever seen. He ended up not towing my car, because after he lifted up the rear end of my car on the tow truck, the front end was really too close to the ground and he said..."I can't afford towing you car because of the risk I would take if I mess up the front end, besides I don't have $100,000 lying around to pay you back." Now, I don't know where that rumor originated that our cars are worth $100,000, but I like it! Later, Nick 1852 Http://members.aol.com/njp548
