As the saying goes.....better late than never.......
Since this thread started I had fallen on serious hard times, long story short I lost everything
Including my beloved Bird, Coral
I sold her to a fella named Roger a semi-retired architect as, at the time, a parts offering for his (then) current project '59 convertible ~ it must have been my tears and whailings that changed his mind, because this morning I finally had the guts to call him and find out the fate of my precious
He has saved her!
He was describing ripping her apart down to the bolts, blasting and dipping and piecing her back together, with 5 glorious coats of a moraccan yellow (I think because I was bawling again by this time) and 5 coats of clear
Her insides will be graced with a medium chocolate brown leather
Pictures are not available yet but will be and we will stay in contact, he said he KNEW the decision to part with Coral was something I was forced into, but he was thrilled to find out his money actually saved the day for me, I was able to buy a running van, move to TX with my family and finally...
GET A JOB AGAIN
I can't tell you all how much it means to me finding Coral alive and well after all the long wait she had, just writing this I realize how off the wall crazy I sound after all its just a car... right?
Pardon me......I need a tissue.....
