OK - here goes - I am biting the bullet and putting my cars where my mouth is. a few weeks ago there was a thread on VT asking if someone should get rid of their cars and work on one at a time or keep them hanging around rotting - I replied - Sell them :-) you can always buy another.
So - FOR SALE - at TO GO prices (please don't offer less) (if you want to start a bidding war feel free :-) -
