    When are you going to get it CA registered? Make sure you say that you just bought it, they will penalize you if its over like 15 days I think. Im curious if they will hassle you for the car being from out of state

    No problem, it was fun helping you hunt it down. We came across several nice/decent buys, but this one steals the show. Your patience really paid off! You got a hell of a car, hopefully I will get to see it in person one day!

    Now for my consultation fee: First right of refusal if you ever sell it!

    There is some serious pride of ownership going on there.

    Lovely engine bay, dig what the P.O. did there.
    Really beautiful car, congratulations on your purchase.
