no gas, no hot water

[mbulriss]

Hank,

Thanks for the encouragement on getting out of the Two Bird Club. I'm
ready to let Guereasko become the new president of the club!

I know you have seen Stagecoach and as someone else told me, the first
person that comes and looks at Stagecoach, it will be gone. I just
listed it about ten days ago on VintageBrds and I have had 4 calls on
it from people that want to come and see it, so I expect it to be gone
soon.

By the way, you need to go to http://photos.yahoo.com/mbulriss where I
have photos on Stagecoach and the new Bird. John Benham says our new
one looks identical to your new SP. Check it out in the photos.

When are we going to see you and Naty at another Lone Star Birds
rally? There's one in October and December, hint, hint.

83 PT40 "Stagecoach" - For Sale
91 PT40 "Texas Minivan" - Looks like Hank's!
at Buckhorn Lake Resort, Kerrville, TX
