    In the interest of full disclosure Henry; it is not 300 wheel horsepower like the previous owner stated.

    i saw at at Exklusiv today when i was there getting my exhaust. couldn't believe how bad the paint is in some areas when i was so nice years ago. but glad its in good hands and hope you make it nice.

    and i went to see Adam R. today to get my new cabrio top from him, and his classic green Corrado is pure sex and just amazing. get this one back up and nice and you'd have two sweet green Corrado's.

    And my old car… Congrats Henry. I'm glad to see it in the hands of someone who will take care of it.
    I buy and sell cars. So if you need something let me know. I have cars, people want cars, I can sell my cars to people, that's basically how this stuff works.

    Is that really what's going to happen? or is derek being facetious?

    If it is going to get stripped then I have some interest in some of the parts.

    I found these pictures on my computer today from December of 2004 when the car was nearly complete.







    It is a shame that I didn't take more of it before selling it.

    That's when it looked at its best IMO.

    I really don't miss the countless hours of wet sanding that thing.
