Well, its not so much that I had lost interest as it is I had no time. I travel a lot, for long periods of time, for work. I had been intending to part that car out for that last year, but clearly, after a year of no progress, that was not going to happen. I had the car listed in my sig (though rather halfass), and had gotten several interested PM'* about it, but people changed their mind about doing projects; or when they realized its a long trip to the middle of MI that is wasn't worth it to come get it.
Maybe some day I will have another. I did like that car a lot!

His name is Isaac, and I have been telling him about BC. He seems like he might be interested in joining up, but he is usually pretty busy. He keeps asking me about many things on the Bonnes, so I am always telling him to join up. I told him about the Michigan meet we have comming up, and he sounded like he might be interested in going.... we will see.


Actually, pretty much everyone at work knows about BC now , and now since people have seen my cars and how much I talk about about BC, two people have went out and purchased Bonneville'*

Jeeze, you gave that one away.

Series II motor alone is worth about that with those miles. Then again pulling it and such takes a lot of time and effort. so does shipping it.

Well, the car was pretty much only worth the motor, trans, and the seats. I wish I had had the equipment to pull the motor and also the time to do it, but that is not the case. A year and a half of it sitting and collecting dust was proof to me that I would not get around to it.

I'm really sorry about your car. I hope it'* all ended well for everyone. Except I, too, dislike you greatly for this selling price.
