    Should we all just put a little red dot on our license plates so that if ever one of ours dies, the authorities know where to rush our parts?

    ROFL.

    True Dat.

    I know if'n mine were ever to get totalled beyond resurrection, I'd be pullin so many parts before it went to the boneyard that there wouldn't be anything left for them to sell.

    When I wrapped my first Torino around a tree (throttle stuck) I had it towed back to my house and stripped EVERYTHING off that car. Most of it ended up on the replacement body. But, the salvage yard that picked up the remaining shell was really pissed!! I would probably NOT do that with my VX since I would not be building a replacement. I would let you vultures pick it clean.

    If ever one of my VX's got schmushed beyond repair I'd hang onto it and let the "community" (Yous guyz) have at it and I'd still keep the shell for posterity so that future generations could continue to ask the question, "what the heck is that?" But then, for me, space is not a problem...I've got plenty between my ears!

    I use the term 'esoteric' in ref to you missing the whole Dr CB "Theme"..
    ... and steer it back to my heart swap original.

    Yet youre all upset about some 'implied' meaning...
    ....and who I do and dont use words with??

    And having asked several other to reconsider their 'spirited retorts' to you...
    (and they removed them...)
    ...and even asking you to -: "Please, leave it at that"...

    I even ask that people just be happy a VX is being saved.. and to AGAIN..
    ..."leave it at that..."

    AND, I waived

    But Oh no...

    Yet you dredge this thread up from its unremarkable slide off the front page.


    And YOUR parting words are " You could have left it at that, but..."


    The irony .......

    Jo
    And to be even MORE clear, your initial post wasn't as clearly a reference to a heart transplant as you've tried to imply.

    The only thing that indicated you were presenting it as a heart transplant thread was your esoteric Dr. CB comment.

    What's ironic is that you're always one of the members here claiming it's only me who wants the last word, only to try to end these discussions by trying to claim the last words with your "drop it/leave it alone" comments.

    Brilliant.......

    Wish I'd thought of that YEARS ago...

    Though someone will prolly claim that your spelling changed the meaning, thus putting him/her at a distinct disadvantage with regard to tha comprehension of meaning, therefore causing a major league BUNCH in his/her panties...

    And so it goes...
