Yup, Nov 1988 CMC classic delivered to No VA. Already had '71 bug pan shortened and rebuilt. Got divorced, remarried, son born, job promotion -- Fast forward to 2003 retired from DoD, took beltway bandit consulting job, retired, sold house (long list of procrastinated TO DO's) and moved to NW FL 2013. Now car sits in new barn 45 miles inland - no electric (ok generator) or water yet. So life gets in the way! I thought son would help so he could drive it to high school. No interest - tried teaching him MT - ran my Yota pickup into bushes.
Recently just sold (Jan) planned retirement property on Chesapeake bay (not planning to return to VA). Currently selling beach front condo in FL (bad renters and increasing costs related to hurricanes). The . . .
Long project list - the Speedster (sat so long i may have to re-rebuild engine) and get new tires again! To Do - wiring, interior (chg from red to tan), install top/tonneau. So honestly just 40 more hours! Have Dolphin Mod-T dune buggy to get on road. Itch scratched with new Masda Miata/MX-5 - Zoom-Zoom! Want to build hurricane get away log cabin or container home on Baker 12 acre farm property.
Mike and I had a competition - I motivated him to finish his. Now he is modifying his. It is a challenge to finish especially with years rapidly going by. Might be looking for a dozen strong SOCer to bury me in it!
