Fire Available next week for viewing?
Hey Jeff,
That looks absolutely stunning. I'm not usually a gold fan but this is the exception. Will we get a chance to see her next week? Certainly hope so. Btw, you prefer me bringing the M Coupe or something else? Your party, your choice. I'll get up a bit early to help you set up. Looking forward to it.
Ron

Ron,

Corvair? If not, M-Coupe as we have never seen.

I agree, gold was a bit of a gamble however I thnk it paid off.....

Actually he is quite reasonable. He made the gas filler splash guard for me and is set to make my pedal box. His quality is unsurpassed.

Think you misunderstood. Dangerous in the sense that there are a lot of tempting items to purchase. I agree that the prices seem fair.
