Well chaps - thats the end of an era for me :( i have sold the coupe and the new owner has just drove it away ( along with all the toys i had collected for it )

i know its gone to a good home and will be well taken care off - it now gives me the much needed time to work on the cab

it was great fun owning the coupe - most fun i have had - im hoping that the cab will give me a similar thrill

the new owner will be on here soon - so treat him nice :D

End of an era and beginning of another.  Was the new owner tall with a dodgey mullet ?
 
Might he be someone used to playing with an FC - not trying to give the game away or anything !:Nono! :Laugh

It was the sensible option Stu. Just make sure you use the cab a bit more.

ha ha ha i like your thinking prof ( wouldnt go asfar as a mullet though ??? )

and yeah i know its the sensible move aswell - got one exhaust on the cab - need another few hrs to get it sorted

the house planning has been passed - so a car needed to go anyways

the new owner said that i can run it down the strip at RS4 - so thats cooool :D

sad day, but as everyone has said, the sensible option. I\'m looking forward to seeing it finished with all the bits that were in the "things to to pile" installed.

Must be a relief to offload the death shed onto a new owner :Giggle

now now, we all know that the huge amount of welding in that car should hold it together for at least another week! ;)

yeah the new owner looked at all the parts with some crazed glint in his eye :D

im sure it will be a nice car once its all sorted - i just didnt have the time or the space to do it

i must learn from this .. do not buy stuff for the cab

and brett - im gonna refrain from answering that .. it wasnt a death shed - maybe a death porch - but defo not a shed :D

At least youve still got one - I shall soon be rexxless as my EGI is on ebay to make room for my lancias return. Could easily replace the coupe for a quicl project :P

Still, i dont think i had a long enough time as an f3cs driver. I\'ll be back...
