I just got a mass mailing from Cornflake, he's in the
New York Times...

Hopefully that link will work, but I think you may
need to register to read it. It's all about how
people are restoring old Land Rovers because of how
trendy newer 4X4's have gotten. The writer actually
did a pretty good job, and got the history correct.
Must be a LRO.
My favorite section of the article.
"Eventually the Jeep evolved into the sporty vehicle
we now see everywhere, and Land Rovers and Land
Cruisers became the hard-working vehicles of choice in
road-poor countries and backwoods locales."
He actually got the New York Times to pretty much
write an ad for him and his outrageous prices. The
article said that you could get an old Land Rover from
a private owner for a few thousand dollars, "but you
would be buying problems." He suggests buying one of
his for $30,000. Guess I need to double my asking
price for The African. ;)
Happy reading, Stirling.
