I won't be wronged, I wont be Insulted and I wont be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to others, and I require the same from them.

Isn't this the same Bird that has been on Ebay about 9 times in the last 2 years? I thought you were pretty close to actually making a deal on it a year or so ago. I think at the time they were wanting somewhere around $75K-85K?

Great looking car, and I think that you'll realize your dream of a wing car much earlier than I will.

I have pictures of three different birds in front of that same garage, 1 Red, 1 White, and 1 Blue.

man! i was so close . i just didn't have enough cash .  we had out standing medical bills and credit cards where through the roof. i was loosing sleep over our debt . so we paid everything off. poof, money is gone now. the only way i will be able to get my bird is when i sell my house.

i can't even dream about your bird . i have to be realistic . a 440 bench seat car will be fine with me . we live 1 mile from manhatten .property is expensive here . hopefully in a couple of yrs . we can sell this house for big bucks and move to a cheaper place . then i can have my monster garage , pool , and white bird . unless you want to trade 4 cars for your bird . i got #'s matching stuff too.   :poke:   :cheers:
