I think reopening Baylands would make a lot of sense, just put a bunch of containers in the run off area.

 Cheesy

Cool car, looking forward to seeing it rolling sometime.   Cool

Hi,

Interest is there, allways, but it seems that the cars on the way to bonny scotland  Wink 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.

Wow!

That car sat in my buddys shop for decades!!

I never even thought about buying it... probably could have had it for a song Roll Eyes

I'll ask Brad (PO) if he has any old photos of the car from back in the day.

Good luck with it!
