Glen H Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 John, What can I say, I bet your so gutted, It must feel like a loss to you, but at least its not a financial one. After what you told me about the 42 year old purchaser, I'll have to admit i was tickled at what his MUM must have said, did he write it off before or after having the full cage fitted that his mum was making him have before being able to drive it?? real shame though mate it was a lovely example.

j30fos Posted June 25, 2004 Author Share Posted June 25, 2004 :-))) Malc tell your daughter yes its in westhoughton. My mum and dad live on bolton road near walter fawshaw. I think the building used to be a dentist. I went to stonleigh with you guys. Im a mate of rich with the green/ali blade S taylor you know him. At the minute im going to spend some money on the house but later in the year I might build another. At least i still have the lights, he didn't want them. Glen no he didn't get the roll cage fitted, he didn't have time, 30 miles is all he done after the drive back to ipswich. Im still going to come to the manchester meets but in the tin top.
