It's good to know that there are at least two of us odd enough to own both a 250 and a 280.

I offer you this 280 owners' wish:

"May your engine start and run and move the car forward and backward when you put it in gear and the rear end not howl and the brakes stop you. And if its not too much to ask, may your cams all have good lobes and all your cylinders have at least 120 psi compression. And if its really not too much to ask, may the Solex not have warped plates ..."
