No plans right now.It was hard watching it go -- damn it was a gorgeous car!! But mynew business is just eating up my whole life and with its rate of growth it will for the next year or two.All to a good cause though, since I own part of it. I gave the money to mywife and told her to do something with it I'll see every day -- a new kitchen, or some really nice art -- just make sure I don't have to be involved. We'll see what develops.

A couple of years down the road, who knows? I'd like a big-block, chrome-bumper C3, or maybe a'68 Camaro with a carburated LS1, and if the business is really profitable, I like the looks of the Superperformance GT40 continuation series a lot.

For now though, I'm just going to dream of project cars to come . . .

Lee, That sucks and I guess it good at the same time if that's what you really wanted to do. I bet Mrs. Willis is in a good mood. I'm sorry to hear it as I liked hearing your racing stories...I guess you can always borrow your sons camaro and smoke some goobers. Can't wait for your next project.
Ooooooo....GT 40...Ehhmmmmmm......Cheers.

When you finally do something down the road you should stop back by the forums and let us know whats going on. Good luck with your business and have fun with the porsche, at least you still have a really fun car to drive.
