Re: Seat height
The Merc used the same seat as the Ford. I suspect they can't be that rare.

Re: Annual MONSTER Swap Portland, Or
Mike sorry to hear about the theft. It's unfortunate that there are thieves in this great hobby. Somewhere along the line they will be caught and it won't be a pretty sight for the crook. Hope you...
