Looks like ive been rumbled. Yes Bumper the caddi has gone south.Offer i couldnt turn down and all that.Need somethin to keep me occupied so went for the vette.Been here since 1991 unregistered so nobodys seen it.Stuart is now the proud owner of one very clean 59 caddi convertible watch out summer 08!!
Took your advice Dell and after much searching decided that my garage is only fit for another lump of detroit iron (maybe fibreglass)..
