(1) Are there any middle class, perhaps lower middle class, bird owners out there that can afford to maitain a Bluebird? If so, how do you do it? (2) As I approach a final decision on the purchase of a 1979 F35, I am envisioning the practical everyday problems of finding, I mean physically locating without an act of God, service at reasonable prices. For example, when it's time for an oil change and lube, can I go to your typical oil change place, i.e., Walmart or GreaseMonkey, or do I have to locate a an 18 wheeler service center and pay a minimum $100.00 "howdy" charge. I imagine that most of those truck places deal primarily with companies that are in business and are used to paying top dollar for "service now." I, on the other hand, 'am not a corporation and can't afford to be shelling out $500.00 here and there for simple service. (4) Another example: A "simple flat tire." The bird doesn't carry a spare so what to do if you get a flat out in the Boonies, or anywhere. It looks to me like I could be out hundreds just to fix a flat! (5) Any input appreciated...Henry at claeys@rgv.net
