    @ Frank: same old story;
    once unloaded I had a difficulties getting the engine to run. Had delivered the car in LA myself with a little less than a half tank of gas (as required). But when starting the engine the fuel gauge showed completely empty. And that can mean 3 things:
    1) tank is really empty
    2) they messed up the sending unit while draining the tank
    3) both of the above

    turned out to be both options... there really wasn't a drop of gas left in the car.
    Still have to drop the tank to get it repaired :rant:

    Had the same story with the Electra last year (but from that car the additional MP3 player/radio was stolen and had quite some more scratches in the paint, all the tires were flat).

    People there don't treat cars like they should.

    Here's how they stuck 2 cars in a seacontainer. Photos were made by the owner of the Linc. who happened to be at that uloading spot by "co-incidence"
    It declares why they leave the air out of the tires and why you can find ATF on your hood/roof. Even know about a Plymouth that was delivered with two dinged upper front fenders and hood due to the fact the wooden scaffold collapsed and the car above landed on top of it. :rant: :rant:

    @Bart: come and visit and take the family (so I'm sure you will be here with the Wagon and not that small Buick :laugh: )

    That is so wrong. Are there not enough containers to go around?

    otter It'll be done someday.

    Wow, what's with all the KarmenGhia's in the background? With the price of gas, I wish I still had my old 69 Ghia just for long trips.
