When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

It is funny how "life" changes things for us.  My wife has had a series of medical issues over the last two years.  Taking care of business resulted in the cars being put on the back burner.  As a result everything got sold, 57 Ranchero, 57 Retractable, 65 T-Bird, and 58 Edsel.  Turned them into a 24 F150 Lariat.  No regrets, no hard feelings, just life.  Now that things are looking better I am back in the "collecting" stuff, just on a more manageable level.

Thanks guys; my health is fine, but as bill said, life gets in the way sometimes.
Rich, I sent you a PM earlier today, but for some reason, I don't see it in my sent box; let me know if you got it.

sad to see your baby leave Joe, but I sure do understand that. You have another one in the line, waiting to get assembled, which will take a lot of money, efforts, time and attention. it's just life...

Thanks guys; I just see the market for these getting less and less so I figured if I could get the right number, I'd let it go....

'reverse thinking' the current situation, there may even come the time to think about the tops of the top of our wish lists of unobtaineum. as some cars may become available at affordable price sooner than later.
For me personally it'd be difficult to decide, because honestly there are not many, if any 'desperately desirable' cars on my wish list that I could think of.
If I had to name one, it would be a 1951 (only) Porsche sunroof 356, but unfortunately these cars are so expensive, even if they lost 3/4 of their value, I still wouldn't be able to afford one.... hahaha..... which is a good thing I guess. Some cars need to stay out of range, so we can keep on dreaming....
