Re: IML: Starting after a long rest period.

["Dan" <sunup@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Miguel,

Congratulations on your LeBaron. That's a great story. And it's good to know 
they can do so well after so many years in storage. It's interesting so many 
people don't know what they have..

I hope you'll send some photos for us to see your revived 66.

Dan
