Mike....thanks...I'm my own worst enemy when it comes to ebay and now I've got help...Knew I should've bought it last time at $100...bidding on it is already past what the market value is for the real thing....my wife wishes I'd stick to the minatures but there just not nearly as much fun to drive!!!! [/QUOTE]

My wife is the exact opposite, the cost of every "little one " I buy she "tactfully" points out could have gone to something the real car could use!! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif

HERBIE...arrived safe and sound...actually came in on just a 3 car carrier by an independent...he actually let me unload it then I reloaded a nice 500 MUSTANG for him back on trailer...HERBIE runs very strong and drives pretty good...but is going to need more cosmetic surgery than I had hoped...also showed up with the original NEW ZEALAND title...this should be interesting in the Fremont County Treasurer...they run when they see me coming...."THE ADVENTURE BEGINS"...
