there's one firmly behind me should I pass. I won't mention names, but if I don't pull the trigger, next in line will make this car another blue 82 or Kermit level resto I'm thinking.

You're too kind . Actually, I was relieved to be in 4th place. I want it bad, but it's almost too nice to drive every day... which I would end up doing.

It'll be fun to see what happens....

Done! Can't wait to pick it up.
Unfortunatley, that won't be for awhile - I'm flying east for a wedding in late May, so that's when I take delivery, and drive it home Can't wait to spend a quality 2000 miles with it on the first run.

Tip of the hat to Dwayne - he was on it too, and stepped aside - a true gentleman.

My car will go up as soon as I button up the winter projects and get it down from the liftbars. It's a very well sorted 86.5, interior 8/10; exterior 7/10; no defered maintenance; ask will be $8950. (altho if that guy referenced in the other thread gets $22500 for his undriven 86.5, mine will be listed at $35,000).

Congrats Ed! I was very fortunate to see this beauty before it heads west.

Having see it first hand, all I can say is this is a real timepiece. I loved all the interesting first MY touches.

When I first saw it, I was really blown away. Took a couple minutes to catch my breath and get down to looking to car over (my main mission). The car is striking!

Wish you well, Ed. Let me know if you have time to meet in DC, or wherever.
