Wow, I'm totally suprised... But, I wish you absolutely the very best.

Good luck with the sale Dennis. To anyone who has any questions about this car. I can vouch for the car having been around the car many, many times.

This car is 100% no if ands or buts a steal at that price. The car is spotless. I've driven the car around, it has great manners, and it drives like a dream. I'd say the car is well worth 2X what he is asking for it. So, let the bidding war begin...

I understand where you are coming from Dennis, I thought I was going to be cleaning house just a few months ago for the same reasons. Things worked themsleves out, and I have been very fortunate to not have to get rid of anything so far. But, if it comes down to material things vs family, family will win every time without a second thought....

Yeah Jarrod I figured this would throw you for a loop...me too...I'm still wondering if I'm doing the right thing the more I think about it. It's been something I've been thinking about for awhile but just couldn't bring myself to do until some recent events. I know you can relate. Thanks for the kinds words Jarrod. If its meant to be it will happen. Both in selling the car and in other things that we are going through right now. We both know what it takes to build a car of this caliber so your right someone will be getting a "steal" at this price...put it this way it won't break my heart if I don't sell it.

I can think of a few Supra "knats" making big HP I need to swat away that I haven't had the privledge to do just yet. I'm sure their sleeping better at night though knowing the SS is on the auction block...
