Renault R5

[chris at force5auto.com]

I hauled one back from Michigan for a NH client back in '98, radical little
toy car. We were hustling to load it as the snow began to fall, knowing it
could never climb the trailer ramps with those steamroller tyres in the
snow! As it was, we had to adjust the track width on the ramps between the
front and rear tyres. The owner tells me that prices run the range from
ultra cheap(60$ sport cams) to unobtainium.

enroute to Fla tomorrow, hoping for better luck than Taka.
