Buffum's New Ride

     The Truck that John has been campaigning in Canada is neither his nor 
     Chevy's, it belongs to Carl Merrill a very well to do Rallyist out of 
     Maine.  Carl has ask John to complete the sorting out of this vehicle. 
     Carl has a European Escort Cosworth with big horse power and a seven 
     speed tranny.  Not one to do things half a**ed, so why not ask the 
     best rally driver in North American to put the final stamp on a major 
     piece.
     
     The truck started out as a brand new Cyclone, no small change so far, 
     then they built a tube frame for it, next added a de-tuned (500 or so 
     horse) NASCAR V6 Chevy engine, then add a semi-automatic H-pattern 
     (shift without a clutch) transmission, shift  top it of with carbon 
     fiber fenders, hood etc. and you get the idea this ain't just the same 
     truck that pa uses to get to the back forty.
