Hello Blueberries Tim,
I have not been on Mud for quite a while, and have caught up a bit. Yes i am stuck in unemployment due to the coronavirus. No matter, i have only just now seen your post from January.
I'm sorry it took so long to reply. I am unable to disagree with you, Wayne is not...
A break from the warmongers, anyone? This Troopie has a job with the lifeguards, on the beach near Petten, Holland. No indication of what engine it has, however it isn't automatic.

Hello Honger,
Thank you for the kind words. You have me thinking of something rather on the personal side:
i don't like the throw-away side of things, and that is one of the reasons i am in love with my Cruiser. Engineer, design, and build it right, and i don't have to replace the car every...
