This from someone who was posting interiors for sale on a weekly basis
(the same ones) for a while, has to be taken with at least a small grain
of salt, I think.

While I completely realize that "parts" are totally "on topic" the fact
that a Marketplace exists on the web site would seem to indicate that
there is a place for parts FS's and WTB's now besides the list.  Also,
your ad there will get to non-s*bscr*bers much more effectively!
