Message	I'm starting to think that none of you know about this freeking cheap oportunities to have a DD. My cousin buy and sell used cars that he buys on car auctions. When I was in Cali, he bought a '87 300ZX NA for $200, a '93 Volvo 850 for $1300, '00 Kia Sephia for $1300...all of them running good and in good shape. This made me wonder why some of you guys have problems finding a DD, when the opportunities to have one in the USA are all over the place. The best car my cousin bought was a beautiful '01 Chevrolet Silverado Z-71 with only 40K miles (looked like new) with huge tires, custom wheels, around $5000 in suspention mods, the roof that covers the back part of the truck, etc etc...All this for only $10700!! Well, guys try going to auctions and you'll be amazed of what you can find. MouserSix find a cheap DD and keep your project going on ;)
