Well the Corvette has finally gone, although I had to cut the price a little lower than I would have prefered. Its new home is up in sunny Filey. The guy drove her home yesterday afternoon.

Hopefully getting the new 'toy' on Wednesday if its as good as it sounds when I get to see it. No more clues yet ! You'll have to wait until Thursday !

Blimey - was beginning to wonder if you'd ever sell it.

Hope you get something interesting for next Sunday (if not perhaps you can find a Sierra laugh).

Hi Marc how you doing ? Haven't seen you at the Woolpack meet anymore, did we frighten you off. laugh

I would imagine that the Cortina pickup is well and truly in the 'scaphead in the sky' by now.

No not at all, been very ill. I had a couple of heart attacks and complete cardiac faliure in september. On the road to recovery and will be out at some meeting in the summer.

Thanks Patrick. If you can find room in your suitcase you can always bring me back a Corvette C6 Z06. laugh

Why does time go so slow when your waiting to pick up a new 'toy'.
