Default She's gone!!!!!!!!

Well, so last week I ran my 92 lx calypso notch to a new personal best of 13.4 and this week she's gone/sold!!! woke up this morning to a phone call at 9.am and some guy was very interested in seeing it, so he drove down from PA and liked it on the spot and drove off with it an hour later, I've owned it since 1998 and it's been a great car and reliable, funny thing is I have no regret, it was time, I threw in a complete extra set of pony rims that had almost worn out nitto 555r's on both sets, by doing such I got for the most part the bare min I wanted out of the car...........anyway, next up... the 85 maybe?? nah not yet, but who knows what the near future holds..lol, anyway, if all goes well, I now have the dough to force feed the 89 vert!!!! whooooohoooo S/C here we come

You sold a notch... and kept a convertable?..... I would have done the exact opposite.

I've only had the vert for a little less than 2 years, ever since I sold my 86 vert, I vowed I'd get another one, the vert is just a fun cruisin' ride without all the headache of a race car.

lol , I hear ya' on the color!!! it was time, 12 years and needing more space plus the fact that I'm buried in my vert and in my 85, the calypso notch I wasn't sunk to far into so I was willing to take less of a loss on it

Now there is even a bigger place to waste money. The bad thing about a boat, you have to have nice weather and wait for the weekend to take it out= even less time to enjoy it. Been there done that one. Oh yeah, converting the man cave, NEVER!!!


No if I can just get rid of that other stang wasting away in my driveway...........

That's how I sold mine. No tire kickers to come look at it. No waiting around for no show prospective buyers to waste my time. Surf the web, click a button. Can't get any easier then that.


I would have never gotten 10K local. Well worth the listing IMO!
