yes, my late, great mechanic (ned - independent motors, ventura blvd) would laugh at all the rubes who picked up the used sec's for $5 or $6k ("gee, what a good price for a car that listed new at $85k") and then were suddenly quite surprised when he quoted them the prices for _________ (name something, anything). kind of a rude awakening. kind of the same crowd who picked up..... yes, 6.9's for low dollars.
