Glad to see your addition to collection is growing Bill. With just about 200 
avants coming into the country, you can now be proud in saying you have 1% of 
the population. More if you count ones that may be scrapped.

With a bit of 3M wrappage it could be a transport vehicle for your company with 
logos etc. I can see it now, delivering parts to customers, business meetings, 
smooging potential customers, airport transport for vlients and staff. The list 
is endless.

Enjoy it. The slipperly slope may have spikes at the bottom so use caution with 
a 16yr old car my friend

So, the SR71 Avant finally showed Friday evening courtesy of Tom n
Jerry/Deliverance Auto & Canine transport service.  Don't ask.
Basically it's all good.  158k, $2200 and the lady spent $100 on a new key
for me (with a light that works... at least for now) and; a receipt for $350
she spent just prior to transport for new coolant and T connector and oil
change..
Car runs great.  Needs TLC and some matching wheels. + a journey to the edge
of the slippery slope.  Anyone need one or two 16" avus wheels?
Has some surface rust that needs to be sanded off and at least primed for
now.
Would make a great MaacoAvant but I'm leaning towards some kind of crazy 3M
wrappage.
FWIW I found the new oem RF lock transmitter at GAP for $63... and miracle
of miracle, it worked!

Says DEFA on it

There should be a contest to predict what will break first.
