My nephew and his bride asked if they could use my Ghia in their wedding pictures last August (2010). They also used it as their "get-away" car after the reception.

Just cheered myself up by posting a new Desktop background after my 7 year old hard drive decided to bale-out.
Lost hundreds of pictures but had the sense to back up my Ghia pictures on my wife's laptop.
