Perhaps he was practicing "Touch and go?" HA! The video took way too long to get to the punchline.

I have owned my ragtop for 20 years and I have never seen one in person. However, because of it, when I was having my license plate surround made, I had it say "440 Newport" instead of "Newport 440," just in case someone knew the difference. (Actually, it was my Son's suggestion as I was...

OK, that's... what I said. This looks like the page from my Data Book.
