In a strange turn of events that began two weeks ago, I ended up with my Grandfather's 1971 Lincoln Town Car Golden Anniversary Edition, which joins my Grandmother's 1975 Firebird that I have had for ten years now.

Then one week ago, thanks to a timely tip, I found an 18,000 mile 1973 SD455 Formula here in Jersey and bought it. This left me no room for all the cars I had, so something needed to be offered up for adoption.
I'm a firm believer in Karma and doing unto others as you would have them do unto you. One of the PerformanceYears members, "BentwheelBob" tipped me off that the SD455 had just popped up on ebay on Labor Day morning. If it wasn't for him posting that heads up on the board that morning, and me running across it at 9:00 AM and then calling the seller here in Jersey, I wouldn't have the Super Duty I'd always wanted. So I owed Bob a debt that needed to be repaid. And he offhandedly mentioned that if I ever wanted to sell the black car, he would like to be put on the "short list."
So I gave him a call that night and he said yes (after asking his wife [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]) So the car is now in his garage with a new set of friends.
Here's is Bob's announcement from yesterday:
