| Misc: | This car has been sold to Denis (RedFox). It was delivered to its new home on May 12th, 2007.
This car has been a BIG part of my life for the past almost six years. The car may be gone, but I've gained some great friends, and volumes of wonderful memories which I'm sure will be with me until I'm gone.
Thanks, everyone, who has been a part of helping me make the car what it became, and thanks, Denis, for giving the car such a great home now!
Cheers,
Sean |
