RE: Demise of a Coupe GT

["Duff, Ian" <IDuff@charter.com>]

Sorry to hear of your loss, hope no one was hurt, let's see if insurance
holds up their end of the bargain, and hope you can find a suitable
replacement quickly. See what happens when you loudly proclaim that you
will not be changing the timing belt, because it'd be more costly than
the car is worth?

	Sadly gone - an electrical short behind the dashboard started a
fire that 
	destroyed the dash, most of the wiring loom, and the upholstery.
It also 
	cracked the windshield.
	 
	Fortunately, the firewall prevented the fire from reaching the
engine.  That 
	_IS_ what it's supposed to do, isn't it?

	One 1983 Coupe GT is no more.
