That would be great. I would have had to have paid someone put it on DVD as I
can't watch VHS, so it works out really well for me.
DAVE, make sure to tell us all when it is available to watch.
I don't think the video is available for purchase anymore...maybe we could put
it on youtube?

you can buy which looks really handy.

Thanks for explaining that. Now I can see why it's not enough to move the car
back on the trailer till the trailer doesn't put much weight on the

No I don't - and you live outside of town and I'm in the city...but if you add
the concrete dealership and Charlie's place, we have a ton of room. But I
