Default Re: 72 TA : New Project

Well, here is the update of the century. The 72 sold today to a very happy new owner. We were both quite pleased with the transaction. If the new owner wishes to announce himself publicly I will leave it up to him.

I know what you're thinking: how could you spend seven years working toward something and then sell it? Well, it's kind of like the biblical story of Jacob and how he had to toil for seven years under Rachel's father Laban, before being allowed to marry Rachel, only the morning after the wedding ceremony he finds out there was a switcheroo and it's Leah he married and not Rachel. So he had to work another seven years to get the girl (car) of his dreams, Rachel.

That was kind of how I felt every time I'd open the garage and see the 72 sitting there. All I saw was seven years of labor and not the good feeling of owning the car I always wanted. So, off she went and now I am hunting for &quot;Rachel&quot;. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

This now leaves me with a bit of funding for the next project, whatever that may be. Hopefully something will come up soon. (or at least sooner than in the next seven years. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]
