Okay, I jumped the gun a bit. I was actually looking in Classic's Spring
1996 Catalog assuming that since it was there, that they would have it.

When I *actually* called to order it turns out it was out of print. They
did, however, turn me on to "Esquire Auto Books" 612/433-5744 which also
did not have the book. Esquire referred me to another out of print book
reseller by the name of Draggage(sp?) also in MN 800/328-8484 which *did*
have two copies in stock.

Call quick!
