Very nice!
Are there a lot of classic cars in Green Valley?
 
Actually there are quite a few, FIVE Bugeyes! Those are Mexican Redbird of Paradise (Caesalpina Mexicana) They don’t like cold weather. They bloom ALL summer. I met a man yesterday that has had MG’s, Porsche, Spitfire and a Bugeye. Says, of all the cars, he wish he had his Bugeye back. I hear the same from a lot of people. So, all you guys think twice before selling.
 
Nice photo, Paul. Your car is looking good!
 
Nice photo!
 
5 Bugeyes?! I didn't think Green Valley was that big... though I've never driven into it. Was just down that way and visited the old Titan Missile museum (and went to Tubac).
 
Green Valley has about 30,000 I think. So many Snow Birds no one really knows how many full time people here. There’s a 1960 here that has the original owner, and it’s still stock.

Right. I've even read how many snow-birds ship cars up and down the east and west coasts.
