The '67 I couldn't afford to restore...

I just learned that the man I sold Regan to IS footing the bill to have her professionally restored! He's agree to send me some pictures. I'll post them asap.

This is a mixed thing for me. How I wish I could have afforded to have her restored myself, but reality is what it is.

Isn't it strange how some of us can be so emotionally affected by an old car or truck?

By the way, I *might* get a chance to buy back those Boyd Coddington wheels. :D

:D


I've been driving my '56 Coupe de Ville as my only car for 13 years (for the last year it had to share the love with the Toronado). I'll never get rid of that car. I never get tired of looking at it or driving it. Every time I turn the key I feeling of overwhelming enjoyment comes over me. I'm not exaggerating.

It's the best and coolest car I've ever owned. The Toro is a close second.
