HIL KING back in the saddle
Ever since my wife moved me into a two car garage in 2007 and made me sell the HIL KING, I have been twitching. Well, no more. My '95 Polo Green/Beige #409 just came off the truck this morning, bought form the California owner out of Hemmings. With only 20,000 miles it looks good and as expected. Completely stock, two tops. As soon as possible it will be off to Marc Haibeck for servicing and a few mods. With a nod to Star Trek, my new Illinois plate will be "WARP TEN". Sorry I missed BG this year, but I will try next year and will also try to get to Bloomington Gold in June (Sunday only). Can't wait to do some driving!--Bob

Kirk, Spock & Bones transport down to an interesting planet and discover that an extinct race left a computer to protect their outpost. The alien computer projects a beautiful female assassin to kill everybody one at a time. The assassin beams up to Enterprise and disables the Emergency Overload Bypass which sends Enterprise screaming off into parts unknown at ever increasing speed. Scotty manages to save the day at the last second but not until they achieve warp 14.2. And there you have it. 'Crabs |
