He continued to tag it each year so the City would not get onto him for a junker in the yard. Well... it's not in the yard but rather it is parked up under a Car port. I am thinking about going down and getting it. The wheels, should be an easy fix. Even if I have to sacrifice the hubs to do it. However I doubt it. Some PB Blaster, Some heat and the Air wrench should take care of it. He never tried any Air on it as he didn't have it to use. It is a Silver Rabbit. I have some phone cam pictures of it. I think he is going to take my offer of $500 for it.
Wow, for $500 I'd definatley take it!
