Hmmmm, do I really want to answer this? If I do, it will open a VERY BIG CAN of worms! And just so you know, my tone which has only been in this post and one other is VERY justified!
It might be a good idea for you to leave this one alone courtenay.
well, I hadn't been keeping up with this thread. I've been trying to focus on posts where the member needs solutions. There are only a certain number of hours to accomplish tasks, so I've had to prioritize my forum reading. This thread didn't seem to need any more input from me, so I hadn't been back to it in days. Sorry if I offended some by my lack of presence

And all for free, I might add. People should respect that.
Same with you other guys- Matt, MBouse, etc.
Thank you.

I'm currently reading George Carlin's biography. Amazing there is any pot left in the world between George and Willie!
BTW, on my screen DoctorPDR's handle is a faded shade and not active blue and I can't find him listed in the member section. I was trying to navigate back to his linked site to look again at that $28k+ spider! Does that mean he is no longer gracing our pages or that he has labeled me a foe?

Thanks, I use this any time I start to worry that I have to much dinero wrapped up in Luigi. Even if he's overstating by $20k I can feel good about my paltry investment.
BTW, how does taking an anniversary edition car and painting it the wrong color, putting in a wrong interior and customizing it in other ways "improve" its collectibility? I guess the same way spending $30k to have a nice $12 car makes sense.

I have another question on the original post. I'd like to add a momentary switch to my 1981 Spider to save the ignition switch start position wearing out plus I think it would be cool.
I did some research and it seems that I can add one to the dash and tap into the ignition switch. I need to run the red wire from the ignition switch to the momentary switch and complete the circuit on the momentary switch by running the other terminal to the Brown wire on the ignition switch. Can anyone confer this?
