For a PPI you might also want to check with Evans in Columbus. He works on many old and new Italian exotics. M.A.G. is a new Ferrari dealer and most of their techs are probably trained on newer cars. Sometimes the independents are better with the older cars IMO. |

Frank, In case you don't recognize Mershon's as a dealer: http://www.mershons.com/others.asp. The Boxer is near end of this section of the site. No clue if they are good or bad but around for a bit in the Corvette world. Will |

Sorry to hijack your topic - but I love to talk airplanes. I used to have a 182 RG. Probably the best personal single around. Very reliable and relative cheap to operate. I'd recommend a Seneca for a personal twin [moved into that after the 182]. Both have great useful load envelopes - and have very docile handling qualities. Used both them both to travel back and forth between Ohio & Florida [although - that became a very long trip in the 182 ].Let me know when you start looking @ 182s - I'll be happy to help however I can. Airplanes are a disease just like cars. I went from a Beech Sport, to Cessna 182RG, to Piper Seneca II, to Cessna 340A Ram VI, to Cessna 421B & Cessna 421C [the B is our corporate aircraft and the C is personal]. Seriously considered a Pilatus instead of another 421 - but I still don't have enough total time to convince the insurance company to cover me in a turbine . Also, back to the topic at hand - found that Boxer you wanted to check out on e-bay. Let me know what you'd like me to do if anything. I'll be out of town until Friday eve - so if you need something done sooner hopefully John will be able to help you out. Else - I'll be able to run out to Springfield on Saturday if you have a list of specifics you would like extra attention paid to. I do have a copy of the Boxer buyers guide from Forza somewhere at home if you don't already have that. Vishal |

Frank, What was the White Plains car like? I saw that the price was way low. Miller has a nice 84 that you would have a hard time finding fault with but it is a solid red full repaint, red piping with 18k miles. Maintenance is current and due in three years maybe. On consignment for around 82. Been there for two years. Will |

Frank - I'm in Dayton so it's less than a 30 minute trip for me. I can take a look for you but would only be able to give you a cosmetic & drving report. Springfield is between Dayton & Columbus. MidWest Auto Group is in Columbus and they are the local Ferrari Dealer if you need a PPI. PS. What do you fly? We have 2 Cessna 421s [and a 340 for sale if you know anyone interested]. |
