    My gosh Tillman, I wonder if that's the same car I've been seeing here at the Concorso Pasadena in CA every year. I mean how many 328 that has the same color with chrome wheels like these one I took two years ago? Well I guess if I don't see it this coming May, then, that's got to be it.

    The carfax said it came out of CA, so its likely. How many blue-on-blue 328s with chrome wheels can there be?

    I'm just glad it sold, I was so very tempted. . .

    To L. It was in Fort Worth headed north on I35

    What a coincidence, imagine the odds of that, small world in more ways than 1.

    That's definitely it! The car is supposed to arrive tomorrow, I've never seen it in person yet, I absolutely love the pics!!
    Most of the funds for this car came from insurance money after losing my 308 GT4 that I owned for 28 years and lost to hurricane Sandy, after I sold it I found out it was the first Dino308gt4 ever built!
    I'm almost 50 years old and tonight I feel like a 13 year old schoolboy!
    I will be posting pics soon!
    Ciao!

    Congratulation,
    I remember that feeling of waiting for my car to arrive.
    Enjoy

    Hey Tillman - Were you actually just sitting in traffic in Texas, when, by pure dumb chance, you happen to end up right next to Lektronimo's new car on it's way from California to New York??

    Mr. Spock, can you compute the odds?

    Hey Tarik, I purchased the car from a dealer in Texas, it was repo California car originally and I think that Tillman is from the area near where my car was.
    Thanks Tillman for that photo!

    Chances are that it really didn't break down. More likely is that they have another deal to pick up or deliver a car and they are giving you a line. You know a car delivery service is lying when they are talking to you.

    A friend of mine was getting a Ford GT delivered to his place in Washington State when he called the delivery vehicle driver from his cell phone. The driver told my friend that he was in CA on I5 in a certain town. My friend said "oh, what mile marker?" Guy gave him a "well, I'm just passing the town line". It just so happened that my friend was actually not in WA, but on vacation in CA in that very spot. "Umm, well considering that I'm actually just entering that town on I5 and you're nowhere to be found, I'd say you're actually somewhere else." IT was at that point the guy admitted he wasn't in CA, but "broken down" in some other state (TX).

    Hey Sammy!
    You are probably right, hell... you've been right on just about everything! lol
    They called me today and said they were in New Jersey and would deliver to me tonight, NOTHING
    I tried calling, no answer.

    I've had enough excitement.
    BRING ME MY CAR!!!!!!

    That is so cool he saw your car in transit. Sorry about the GT4, but good luck with the new purchase. Hope it arrives here on the Island today!

    It arrived early this morning!!
    and its very very dirty! lol
    I could barely see out the window! that's what you get with outside transport I guess.
    You get what you pay for, & I got free transport!
    I love it though, I'll have to get a little familiar with the interior, a bit different than my old gt4, same tired window motors though.
    It drives really nice, straight as an arrow and sounds great!
    Too bad its so freakin' cold here in NY, I'd like to give it a good wash.
    Woo Hoo!
    I'm psyched!!, bring on the spring and summer, I'm ready!
    Thanks everyone,
    I invite you all over for an espresso! LOL
