I visited my ex-car.

I was out walking the dog at my mom's neighborhood today when I heard a
familiar roar a few houses down. I saw the guy I had sold my '69
Squareback to a year ago backing it out of his garage. I decided to check
up on it. It aparently has a major exhaust leak, but still seems to run
fair otherwise. The car had original paint over most of it, and the dash
paint and interior were in very good condition when I sold it. The interior
still looked okay, but the dash was covered with stickers. The driver's
door had more damage than it used to due to an altercation with a tree
stump. He had added headlight eyelashes (or whatever those things are) to it.

So anyway, it just wasn't my car anymore. It was his car. His scummy
girlfriend seems to have inherited it (and drove away drinking a beer
too). If I ever get off my lazy butt I'll send the pile of pictures of my
car in the condition it was in a year ago to Greg to add in whatever part of
the Type III page he sees fit.

I still wouldn't mind picking up a Squareback with a solid body but shot
mechanicals around the Atlanta area. It's funny that there are 4 Bentleys,
three DeLoreans, and one AC Cobra for sale in the Atlanta paper, but there
hasn't been a Squareback for months - and probably a couple of years for
an early body.

Anyway, cheers.
