Ditto. The first time I saw that car was at a Karl's show and I thought it was awesome.

Yes I hooked you up super cheap 8) *$3500 cheap* and I personally delivered it to you all the way from Tx to L.A.

I remember posting it in the classifieds for $3600 or some shit and it was on there for a whole day with no bites and then all the sudden Carlos calls me and was like why didnt you tell me you were selling MY car? I was like what? your car? he said yeah because its gonna be MINE. :lol:

For a Kansas car that thing was so nice and solid. Kinda wish I still owned it but I had the 56 RHD vert at the time and didnt really have the room for it. OG diamond green car. That thing would look good redone original color.

I see you removed them sweet semi truck peanuts. :o
