    I saw Ron last night... he's looking much better and he's anxious to get out of there; I think the convalescing at Martin & Gaby's will be just what he needs. Plus, he'll be able to watch the F1 race at 7:30 Sunday! :D

    ...and qualifying as well :) I saw practice today. Nice....had to cut it short because the 356 arrived on the truck.

    Almost crashed it right into the building. The brakes are to the floor :)

    Ron is here. Glad to have him and get him out of the sick mode. Will probably take some busting balls to do that since he is pretty stck in that mode right now. He wants to keep the mummu becasue it is comfortable. I told him I will kick his behind if he wears that in the house. No more sick...no more hospital...he is in recovery and will wear cloths.

    I am not sure who wants to be who when we grow up :) . You definetly look at more toys than I do while working and it is not that the 356 is a Speedster or better a 550 Spyder, its just a Coupe.
    Bills NSX is worth more money (its just not a Supercar, but don't tell him...:) )

    Good news to hear, Ron!

    And, hey Martin... It could be worse than the mumu! ;) At least he's wearing THAT!

    Best wishes, Ron.

    Ron, Even though I never met you, I feel for you and i'm very saddened by this. Today is the first time I heard about the accident. I hope all goes well with your recovery and be strong!

    Ron, I am sure you know this, but no one could have better friends than Gaby and Martin! We are very pleased that you are at their home and out of the hospital.Continue to get better and we look forward to seeing you when we get back.
    All the best, Peter and Sandi.

    It is for sale of course, like anything else. I would wholesale the car right now or we will start working on it and get some of the issues resolved and restore the car and rake in the real profit.

    Its a 1963 356B Coupe T6 with the small 60HP engine. Very original with the exception of the muffler that has been butchered. The great news is, the parts are very easy accessible and relatively cheap. Its needs only minor stuff like the rubber around the windows, new paint and a seal at the right axle. (yeah...and the brakes LOL). It is very original even the radio is from the early 60s. Very cute car with only 80K miles.
    $24500 as-is.

    Even though it a nice gesture, a Ford Escort is not going to do it for him after a 512 BB!

    I guess Ford is in really bad shape if they have become pimps!

    But after seeing your car William, you could become the lead designer for the new Ford Hooker. Purple and chrome, croc leather seats, musical horn, I can see it now.

    There was a Simpson's episode with Hmer designing the car of the future. He bancrupted his long lost brothers auto company and put him on the street. Great episode.
    I bet you William can do the same for Ford. :)

    How does Ron look in a mumu? When he walks around does his ass stick out? Martin, tell him that I asked to get a laugh out of him.

    Well he was smart and wore basically two mummu's. One in front and one to cover his behind. Eitherway he looks a lot more "human" and healthy now that he is wearing normal cloths. Makes a difference in his attitude as well.
