Funny you would say that. My best friend, whom I consider family, gave
me a small plane for that reason. Its like a Peugeot of the sky, heavy,
most models underpowered, roomy, comfortable, orphaned by the
manufacturer, maligned reputation, misunderstood by most mechanics and
pilots, and has a fiercely loyal following. And I would never giver her
up, like my 2 Peugeots. Fortunately for me, he hasn't passed on, just
had to give up flying.

"I have heard similar stories with other cars that required the care of a
"trusted mechanic". Heard of one story where the family thought they would
receive the classic upon the passing of the owner only to be surprised that
the owner left it to the mechanic as he was the only one that would care
for
the car the way he did.
I don't think it's an entirely crazy idea.
Good luck on the alternator, Larry. I don't have one, but I'm sure someone
here does.
