This apparently got bounced by Rovernet when I first sent it, probably
because it had a big distribution list and was therefore treated as spam.
Here it is again, minus the big distribution list. Since I first sent it
a week or so ago, John Burkhard has spoken with the car's owner and it
sounds like a project or parts car. Still, hopefully it can be saved from
the crusher.
