    red 1981 finished. praise the lord! brakes work perfect. all mechanics perfect. two year battle, done. I sat and idled two hours today while waiting for the police to show and welder to fix a door. caught four white 25 year olds red handed. they went through a steel door! I had my 430 Maserati and chased them down, pinned two against a chain link fence. never said a word. I just made sure they would not forget this day. no photos for the police I was too busy driving. my guess, they will not be back for a while. that little Maserati was great on loose rock and dirt. did not need a gun. these were not hardened guys. my 1980 blue 400 is being worked on now. with luck I will have it tomorrow. down to the spedo. cable, I made an extra if any one needs such

    Mitchell,
    Did the bonnet get wet or were they facing the other way?

    it's a real shame that I did not get a picture. the look of the trapped two reminded me of a mouse being squeezed. true bug eye. my fingers are so nerve damaged that they do not function well.

    Actually, I don't think you really want any photos of that.
    Sounds like a Dukes of Hazzard moment.

    Lever for turn signal is shot😩. Hunting a new one now. Eurospares was the first stop. T Rutland was next. Second 400ai done until I get a new lh window motor. It's on the road as well. Happy. A very long effort.

    Maybe Lexington, KY is not the place to keep 400's!

    precedes me. this is the only one I am allowed in. and I am on my last warning. seems my mouth engages before brain. I cannot adjust to women in spandex objecting to me making comments. a have also acclimated to all the cars needing touch up paint every year. scene has some extra cost. I even tried to buy tickets to the business, so old geezers could watch.

    stalk is not working for turn signals and tonight the high beam as well. groan. a hard brake revealed one rear wheel lock up. the front two calipers were redone but the shop decided rears were ok. wrong. other 400ai. exhaust leak, I had forgotten. ordered LH window motor crapped out. Columbus shop to fix, well. I found a new one at T Rutland! found two more at another dealer. bought those as well. need LH rearview mirror. that will be easy. I will replace all the brake hoses.
