Great upgrades! I enjoy seeing improvements that stay with the original theme.

Eager to see your T&T numbers. You don't have a bigger carb, do you? :mrgreen:

Perry sold the Lincoln to a couple in Wyoming. Again, it was trailered to a new home. Feel like I'm watching my daughter making her way in a new life. See Perry's note below. Walt would be pleased too.

Hello Jim - I sure hope you and yours are well there.

Wanted to let you know that I made the very tough decision to sell Belle. She just left a couple days ago with her new owner to Wyoming. I've sold a couple other cars recently as well, and continuing to downsize further. It's past time for me to reprioritize my time and resources, and I think will end up with two cars, maybe one.

Anyway, I spent a fair amount of time talking with the new owner and he drove 1000+ miles to pick her up in a nice enclosed trailer. Shortly before, I gave her a good thorough detailing and polish. Check it out here:

I'm sure glad that our paths crossed, and I wish you well!

Thats cool to hear about it still and that new owners drove 1000+ miles to trailer it home.

My old S10 Blazer came up for sale a couple months ago from the guy that bought it from me. It was like seeing an old friend.

That was such a big car! If the new owner drove that far for it, I'm sure they're going to be crazy about it too.
