Subject:Re: Westfalia box for luggage rack (allegedly) on ebay

The seller is fellow WetWesties founder, Cris Torlasco.  He knows his
way around Westies and IMHO is exceedingly honest and upfront.  You'll
find a bit more about him here: <http://torlasco.tripod.com/>

If you've got a problem with the box, don't buy it.
