Bob,
Sounds like you found Rockvale Square at the intersection of US-30 and PA-896.
Where did you stay while you were there?

Last weekend I bought a full size sofa ata garage sale. I started measuring the sofa to see if it would fit in the PT. The seller asked what kind of car I had. I told him a PT, and he started to laugh thinking I was kidding about fitting it. He asked if I knew anyone with an SUV.

You should have seen his face whaen we carried it out and it fit. The hatch came within about 3" of closing, so I had to tie it down, but I got the sofa home.

The amazing thing is, once I take the sofa out, I could head to the track and have a good chance of beating a Ferrari 308 GTB/Si
Quattrovalvole.

Shhhhhhhhh.


It's OK for us to know how much stuff can be stuffed into a PT, but I would prefer it if certain of my friends don't find that out.
