[pelletman@mainnet.dmc.net]

Anyone that has a place at Lime Rock that can't use it?  I'd be interested
in urchasing your spot.

My local dealer (Tracy Audi in Hyannis, MA) has a 1990 90 Audi 20v, BBS
wheels, DOHC, 85K mi clean, never hit   asking $12,995.00.  Call Phil Maker
@ 508 775-3049.

I'm installing H & R  progressive rate springs, IA Stage I computer, brembo
cross drilled rotors & Repco metal masters in my 87 5kcstq sedan.  Anyone
know anything I should know?

TIA
