I did? Holy crap, I did!!!! :hmmm. Man.. That's pretty crazy even for me..... Well, it helps with an understanding wife and a job where sometimes you get &quot;lost&quot; in the system and forgotten. But the good news is I have vacation next month so I'm hoping the Bee will be next! Thanks for the well wishes and following along! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]. I'll post up again after the new owner gets the car.

I want a '57 T-bird now!

How about a 56 t-bird? I have one that doesn't fit in my bowtie world. Driver grade...Joe

I wanted to update the thread since the car is with it's new proud papa! It was delivered Tuesday to Mike, the new owner, and I was there to help deliver it!

His retirement party is Saturday and the car arrived just in time for him to show it off! Here he is sitting in it for the first time! I call this shot, &quot;Crouching Mike, Hidden Pilot&quot;

I had to convince him to buy that roll out checkered mat to park on. Looks real good parked there.

Great, looks like a nice car. Do you take the skirts off to drive, or just happen to take them off for some other reason? Just curious.
