Bill;

Well first, do you have any recollection of what CC was like in the late
'70's and '80's (I'm sure you do) read "K-car" as the flagship, this
answers how I ended-up with the Ferds, I still have an Explorer also.
Never really drag raced it, but I do have a few race stories, 442 W31 was
not even a match. Raced a '68 Hemi one time in Indianapolis one time that
was set-up for the strip and blew his doors off (did not know the fella) he
came over later that evening and wanted to know what I had done to the car,
"""said""" he ran high 12's low 13's at the strip.

Although Lee Iacoca was good to me, bought 5000 shares at somewhere between
$3 and $4, sold at $28/$29, Thanks Lee! Got me where I am today.
