[raymead at comcast.net]

Hello all,

I am now (finally) in touch with the woman at History Detectives
who did the story..........  she even answered me from her personal
email address!

So, let me find out where this story is at this time and i'll let you
all know (it seems to be they should be willing to TELL US what
the vin number is)!
