Thanks. As for the reason(s), there are many although none of them pertain to the car. You can take your pick.

1. Since we don't show the car anymore it just sits in the garage.
2. Obama got re-elected.
3. Potential lay-off due to sequestration.
4. Possibly moving (due to #2 & 3) LOL

I will do that. Thanks. He should really be doing this under his account but he's so busy with work he just doesn't have time. As for the why see the answer above. It might make you laugh but it's true. LOL

I've personally seen this car and it's in excellent condition. Gary takes good care of his cars and it shows. Here are some pictures of it from our company's car show.

Reduced to $6,500. We are moving and need to sell this car. You can't beat this price.

Yes it was. the guy that bought it is a true vette enthusiast and a pretty good dude. He got a ton of cool stuff, parts, Helms and Kilebrew repair manuals. She went to a good home and I know he will take good care of her. I told him if I ever see him on the road and the car has swirl marks in it then I'm probably just going to ram him
He will probably introduce himself soon.

Thanks everyone for the kind comments about my car.

I left my job at Lockheed Martin (27 years) and am heading to the Ozarks to run my 200 acre cattle ranch.

It has been a great ride with great people here on the forum

***SOLD

Good luck. That was a nice one. Had I still been looking it would have been on the short list. I'd pull a u turn and follow it anytime.

So glad to hear it went to a good home. Have fun running the cattle ranch, sounds like it will be a good life transition. Don't be a stranger on the C4 boards.

I plan visiting from time to time.
On a good note, I have a new Kobata 4x4 tractor with a turbo
