Ah yes, the colour.
I can still remember last year when the bride finally decided to let me spend the moolah on a car.......

I agree with the others.
Looks nice in the pics.
Enjoy it on the road for as long as you can, Once you take it off, if could be a while before you get to drive it again.

Thanks....
I want to give it a wash today, but because all the rubbers are rooted I'm worried it'll turn into a swimming pool

Well done Cal!!! Bout time. But well worth the wait. Looks good in the pics.
Do as others have said, just drive it for awhile, keep it polished and sheltered from the weather as mauch as you can. I'm sure after a few months a few little bits and pieces will need doing, its always the way.
As for driving you'll get used to people pulling in front of your "safety" gap. Drums are fun! You just never quite know where you're going to go under hard braking....

It reached 6700 last week, but the dude that had the highest bid stuffed the owner around. Then the dude with the second highest bid backed out
He re listed. I've since bought it......I think he's having trouble removing it from Ebay.
They don't make it easy when you want to take something off Ebay
