my first car after the army was a yellow '60 MGA with wire knock off wheels, Corner hard left, the passengers door came open. Exiting a right hander, you grabbed your door and pulled it in. Hit the right bump at night, and you were driving in the dark, until the right bump came along. The car stated every time it wanted to. Bought it for $ 500, sold it for $ 800, and got something that would get me to class on time- a '53 Chevy for $50.
Lucas, Prince of Darkness- gotta love it, or maybe not.
