How 'bout THIS?
 
Since I've been puttering with, and around in, my Butler, I have run across two individuals who want (Arntz-)Butlers for themselves. Both are willing to buy unfinished or engine-less units. Neither is going to get mine---unless I can trade up! Both live within an hour's drive of my house on Cape Cod and therefore near FFR's headquarters--and neither wishes to purchase a kit from that particular (ahem!) Wareham-based kit-company. Tells you a lot about the comparative impression my car made on them.

Both guys have tried to find used or unfinished Butlers on the KitCar.com site and have found NONE listed. If you guys know of one (or preferably two) Arntz-Butlers (or just plain Butlers) for sale, please let me know. One guy has a Moto-Guzzi (Sp?) V-6 (!) motorcycle to throw in, if there's interest. Each guy is a proficient wrench so there's no problem. I saw the one in the latest KitCar, p. 75, which raked in $42,120 at Barrett-Jackson. THAT seems a little rich for anybody's blood, but it could be a fairly-accurate reference for the going rate!(?)

In any case, lemme know, if you stumble across a Butler up on jack-stands, etc. either at douglassf@aol.com or (508) 564-4297

Thanks, allayuz. Now the ball's in my friends' court(s). Those side-pipes are interesting. Mine come out through the little square hole. In any case, you've provided a lead and it's up to them. And....additionally...."Giampiero" it is..........

Those sidepipes arn't attached to an engine, I'm sure they're just hanging there for show....

Freddie, at first I thought you wrote "Each guy is a proficient wench..." :eek: and then I re read and saw that you actually said "wrench". Whew! Had me worried there for a minute. I was thinkin maybe the the sight of all those Polynesians running around in skirts had kinda messed up your equilibrium a lil bit.

Nnever happen, amigo! NeVAIRE.
 
Just one dose of the "Sopranos" Sunday night offering was enough to convince me that the Mafia's always been on the right track!

It's not that I mind REAL wenches who're good with wrenches. I even like it when they can wrench it withOUT a wrench..........oh never mind. But any "wench" I grace with my Walrussian Presence must be certifiably, domonstably and 'way OBVIOUSLY a female!!!!!

Re the trip to Melanesian Paradise, I do in fact have a perfectly horrifying shot which WILL---repeat WILL------become one of my Christmas card offerings next wintah!!!
