Hey Glen,

I stopped by John Clark's shop on Thursday morning en route to our motorcyle field trip. Your new car is absolutely beautiful. The black paint shines like glass and the four-pipe set-up is just too cool. Enjoy it in good health . . . I am sure that you can out run the mounties, whether you can out run their radios is another question. Enjoy!!

Thanks Dennis. I owe you big time - first for your referral to Michael Willhoit (tremendous car - very fair and reasonable salesman) and second for telling about John Clark (What an amazing mechanic and a super nice guy!) I hope we'll get a chance to get together some time soon. All the best to you and yours and safe and happy motoring. - Glenn P.S. That Shelby that John is working on is going to look really special. Please send some pics when it is all done and I'll send you some of mine when it gets north of the border.

Congratulazioni Bergamasco e benvenuto nel club dei biturbati. Dalla descrizione sembra un'ottima auto. A quando le prime foto?

Guys:

The car hasn't arrived yet. As soon as it does I will invite the press! Thanks for the compliments. It was worth the flight and all the expenses to view it. It looks like it came from Ralph Lauren's private collection!!!!

Thanks for the compliments, Dan. I am planning to have TFX International to transport the car for me. Bryce Crocker from Toronto bought my car. He is an Aussie that is here working for a multinational mining company and should be in Canada for at least a couple of more years. A super nice guy! I tried to convince him to come out to our Saturday morning GTGs in Toronto. I think we will see him sometime soon.

Ciao Nicola

Thanks, Receiver... I am looking forward to seeing her any day of the week. LOL However, it will probably take 2-3 weeks before she arrives. Oh the anticipation...

You're gonna love her. I used TFX as well. Very reliable so you can rest easy.

BTW, I just had mine fitted with TTS exhaust (twin tail pipes) by Porsche dealer... guys tell me its the best thing I done to the car, in this long (seemingly endless) modification process.

Congrats Glen, fabulous looking car. Keep it 'Gleen' :0)

Note: u mentioned TTS chin...didnt see this on Willhoit's website car - sure will look more complete (with all the TTS stuff) to have that chin. I also got that on my car, and it makes quite a difference lookswise.

Looks like you'll be getting your car just as I get mine on the road. We'll have to do a little tour.....maybe Danny and Receiver will make it a foursome?
