Not mine, but certainly a very nice Coupe.....They may call it "Dophin Blue," but that sure looks like Viking Blue to me.

Howdy,

Detroit Kim's maybe?

I'm basing this on the MI plates and the Cavalier 3rd brake light.

Hi Rob,
Moved and bought an old 1800's house.
I think that explains it.
Also got into motor bikes.
Still plan on updating the ol' coupe.
She's still going strong and in good shape.
How are you doing ?

Hey Kim,
How are you bud? How's Kristen? Hope all is well.
What is the nickname for the house now? Those old farm houses
tend to get them.
Got the bike bug myself right now just can't do much about it yet.
You'll have to post some pics.
Todd

No special name for the house yet. But its normally preceded with @$%^ $$$$$$.
So did you keep your coupe. I hope so.

Thumbs up
Kim, doing great.....just hosted our 9th year of our cobra event here in Delaware. My coupe is running great, although life seems to get in the way of driving it much. I just went past 5,000 miles this past weekend on it. So, you now own two money pits......your coupe and an 1800's house. Where are you now? Still in MI?

Rob

Kim,
No the coupe had to be sold, with the unemployment issue back awhile ago, it had to be done. A guy down in NC bought it. I have not seen it since then.
Take care.
Todd

Rob, its good to see some old names still on the forum.
I'm still in mi. In Dexter. 15min from Ann Arbor.
There are some great driving / riding roads around here.
I keep meaning to get to the Cobra meet in London. But June is such a busy month.
