Chad, Charlie, Barry, Lutz, Drop - thank you all for your excellent feedback - ton of knowledge here - especially on the trapox item. I'm sending a note over to chasin in Houston to discuss the 300CDs he has....especially since I can drive over to check them out. You are right - long distance buys of an older vehicle can be extremely risky. I'll keep you all posted - and if you see something pop up - shoot me a PM or call 210-379-3042. Thanks.

Daryl
