Sort of an explaination of the weird nick...

I used to do a lot of online flying (SU-27 Flanker) and used Contrail as my nick on those boards, so I just stuck with it. Contrails (for those who don't know) are the white condensation trails (Con-trails; get it? |biggrin| ) that follow behind aircraft at high altitude or from the wingtips during high g manuvers. The big joke was: "If you can't find me, look behind you, I'm as close as your contrails." Thus the weird nick. I used to be a fairly good virtual fighter pilot back in the day...

Now I have more important toys to play with...

Vette(s): I sold mine
Hey, what a coincidence...I just bought a 1977 L48 about two weeks ago and I also purchased new weatherstripping for my t-tops. Mine was a late model as well.
