This is for Moe, not Larry or Curly. I love the lines of this car, especially the rear end. Cool Man, is the engine really that skinny? It's been a while since I've seen one at a show.

I really like the style. As long as we keep the top down and we can shop for some nice stogies. We'll make you drink coffee, too.

That definitely is a sweet one. The 39 is desireable because it has several upgrades over the earlier ones, slightly bigger engine, juice brakes, direct acting shocks (vs Houdaille) regulator instead of three brush generator and cut-out. I personally like the 2-seater convertible better, but this one will go for $50K easily. The only problem is getting it across the pond. I'm surprised that somebody over there hasn't jumped on it. They are the hot item in Europe.

I would have posted one like yours, but none are for sale since it seems that the guys who own them just won't give them up. The European taste in Yank Tanks seems to be stuck between the 50's and 70's.

So, what's up with your car? Anything new and exciting.

It sure is a nice car and I like the shade of green as well.

The color is what made me check it out. Greens are good in my book too.

With the magic of the Net, it's easier than ever before to get parts. It just costs a fortune after duties are paid.

Yes getting them into Europe is a problem but obviously they are doing ok.

The only problem with international parts shipments is that they can get hung up in customs. With all the craziness today, even kids remote control toys are under scrutiny.

Customs is always a problem. Better to have them check than not but still irritating.
