    This was a friend of mine's GS-350. He's been talking about selling it for a month or so. 72 GS-350. Nice clean California car. He drove it to my house today and made me an offer I really couldn't refuse. He gave me the build sheet and the Sloan papers. Its a really nice car with a ton of options- disc brakes, tilt, buckets, console, 8 track, cruise and ice cold AC. He just put brand new Wide Ovals on it not more than a few months ago. Car rides like a dream.

    Its now official- I have too many cars!!! I think I need to check myself in somewhere for compulsive car buying. Im really having buyers remorse on this one though. Its a really nice car that needs to be garaged. I honestly didn't need it. Anyway, im really thinking about driving it to Allentown rather than tow the 4 speed car. Maybe sell it down the road. I don't know.

    I actually had to step up a little for this one. Funny, its the most money I ever spent on a car in my life.

    Oh. My. Goodness.

    That is awesome! It's the right color too! And Jason, I've said this before a few times, but as much as I like you, you make it difficult sometimes.

    And I want that! It'd be the perfect Dr. Jekyll to my current Mr. Hyde!

    We can caravan out to Allentown .. throw a "Fore Sail" sign on it with a redonkulus price - if it sells there's always room in Sportn'wood for one (or 6) more coming home :Brow::Do No:
