I followed this thread and added pics thinking it was your car, Glad you found it and it is still around. Yeah! Post some pics of how it looks today, maybe it will motivate you to duplicate it or move on to a different project. We all have a car we regret selling. Mine is sitting at my sister’s house rotting away. Can’t reason with stubbornness!

Please go and visit Sinthia.

Take some pictures of you with the car and post them here, so this thread will have closure.

We all had cars we regret selling. Right now I'm torn about selling my oval I've had for 45 years, but it's stopped evolving, and I'd like to see what someone else does with it.

Well thanks for your five minutes, and a BIG thanks to the SAMBA for the 12 years following the drama I inadvertently caused. . But this has a happy ending. .
After texting a few back n fourth the current owner our paths have crossed. .
I don't think he's ready to let Sinthia go, but he has my contact info for that day. .

I saw that car for sale end of last year when I was looking for a notchback. It was listed on CL in South Carolina.

This is promising, thanks for your post. .
Spent the last 6 or so hours scouring the FB Group & more pictures than I care to admit, nothin. Moderators don't moderate their emails I guess. . I feel so close like never before. .Finders fee for a contact # a possibility for the current owner of Synthia. .
