Mike,
A friend of mine in Harrisonburg, VA just finished a round-trip to CA and
back in his A-H. Beautifully done car!
Like you, he spent many, many thousands in restoration.
Went to his estate during the time he was putting it back together. He took
me upstairs to where he had the fenders, hood and boot. We walked into the
room...all white carpet and white leather furniture...and there on the
furniture were his parts. What a wife!!!
His trip included a 70 Vette, BMW M8 and a Maserati Quattroporte, and him
of course.
Just four guys doing something they wanted to do before it was "too
late"...we all know that gut feeling.
Now he's back to being President of the University...what a wind-down!
Until his next outing....
BTW, he also owns a very nice Bugeye.
Herb
