    I would like to thank Sergio of Autoforum in Toronto as well as Tom Bakowski for finding me a great BB512. I was looking for a BB that needed some attention, something I could sink my teeth into and bring back from the dead but Tom steered me elsewhere and showed me a mint version first. Well, it wasnt what I wanted and against my better judgement I went for a ride in it and I was screwed right then and there. I had to have it. I spoke to Sergio, hammered out a deal that fit my budget, tom went over the car with a fine tooth comb and now here it sits in my garage. After driving the car home on the 1 hour trip from TO I realized I couldnt go back after having a flat 12, Im sold on the sound and the power delivery the 12 gives me. When my 308 restoration is done Ill be selling it, probably in a years time I figure.

    I just wanted to thank the people involved for getting me into this car, now, if anyone knows of a diablo for sale, email Tom Bakowski from this site because he really wants one bad and realizes life is too short to hold back.
