ATTN:Kevin Collins (front reinforcement)

[mkii@nycap.rr.com (Josh Able)]

bah, I didn't really bring Dick up (hehe) concerning the handling issue, and
the only thing I said about his front sway bar working for me was that it
was due to my wheel set up, But whiny wonder boy needed to vent because he
has VD.

The one time I did ask the list about Dicks opinion on the chassis issue,
NOT handling, the only 1-2 responses backed up his view.
