    Today, I was working on my green car, when my neighbor came over, to see what I was working on. I told him that I wanted to add a power outlet, since this car didn't have a cigar lighter...He told me to hold tight, that he would be back in a few minutes...I wondered what he was going to get, he's not a car guy, he doesn't even own a car....well, he returned with a factory fresh cigar lighter, and ash tray light!!
    I'm amazed at what has has hidden in his basement, and to answer the question why he would have them..He retired from Ford.
    So while I was at it, I fixed my speedo. I never knew you could remove the ash tray holder, and reach in behind the speedo to attach the cable, after 24 years of having Mavericks, I learned something new today. :D

    Very nice neighbor. I like the color of your carpet too :).

    That has to be a very hard item to find in NOS.
