Ferrari Mailing List: Re: NFC: Well, I did it.

[red5hilser (red5hilser]

Am I missing somthing here? When I got the 'Shitbox' 208 delivered in late 
June, 1999, I changed ALL the fluids and filters, skipped the repair shop and 
drive it across the desert to my daughter's home in 'Surf City,' Ca. 500 miles 
each way and most of it was between 5 and 6k rpm. I know that HRM cLyDe thinks 
it's a 'Shitbox' but for a poor senior on a fixed income in BF Arkansas ... I 
couldn't be happier.
 
Yer pal, Ferrari Bubba
