it was nice to have this one in our container but it will be more nice to see it on the strip who will prepare it for racing ?

:D Cool car, looking forward to seeing it rolling sometime. 8) Title: Re: Old Bug Inn Racher for EBI 3 Post by: LuftsickTero on March 16, 2009, 12:10:21 pm (http://homepage.mac.com/kdfkid/animal4.jpg) Is that the Hessich Oldendorf station in background?

Interest is there, allways, but it seems that the cars on the way to bonny scotland ;) before you get the chance to get one. Seriously, I am looking for an old gasser, let me know when something comes up you are not interested in.
