Sure....good luck! I've looked at thousands and never found one. It's depressing, these are almost impossible to find.

Aren't we all!

The one BadThad pictured is an '84. There is another one not as dramatic for 1997.

Absolutely!

There are all kinds of varieties and errors out there waiting to be discovered. Just because something is not on a "list" doesn't mean it doesn't exist!

cazzuey, there is also the 2006 but you should find pics of all three because they look different and you need to know what to look for.
