Not mine, found on CL in Columbus, GA. Phone number is a Phenix City, AL (yes that's the correct spelling, remember it's Alabama) number, just across the river. Seems like it would be an interesting challenge car and a good deal for a few hundred dollars.

Just across the river but a whole world away.

Phenix City is on Eastern time even though its in the Central time zone. They tried to change it a while back. One of the callers to a radio show was against it because her tomatoes would get one hour less sunlight each day and it would ruin them.

spitfirebill, that sounds about right for a Phenix City resident. My IQ drops a little every day just for living so close.

I'm just joking of course, you should all visit. It's a lovely city! In the 50's the State Attorney General was murdered outside his office. They had to bring in the National Guard to clean up the city and drive out the mafia. How could it not be a great place??

Sorry, went a little off topic there.
