If owning 1 of 20 is good, owning 2 of 20 has got to be better.

Thanks for the congrats! I'm thinking of trying to save the original paint and restoring this one to the way it was when delivered to the dealer (before LEO equipment was installed) and show them side by side as a "before and after" pair.

This one has a strange story that goes along with an unused bullet on a key chain that hangs from the map light (was left hanging in car by Trooper when sold at auction according to original owner after State Patrol). The story was told by the original buyer to the owner I got the car from who relayed it to me last night. I'm going to do some research on this story before I pass it along, as I don't want to perpetuate any urban myth.

Thanks, I'll probably need it.

Very nice Bob! And I like the "move" too. "Honey...I would have consulted with you but you were in an airplane and something this rare would have gone to someone else if I had waited any longer to make the deal. I really wanted to talk with you first, but it just wasn't possible.

Best to show up with it finished. If they nickname it then you are good....

After I go get the 10-holes from the cabin tomorrow and replace the Ponys, I will be bringing it out from hiding (it now resides down the street with the other SSP, but the home owners are coming back from FL next Wednesday for 10 days and they will need the space my second SSP is now using, for their rental car). My plan is to tell her I got it out of storage to do some work on it, and hopefully when she sees it she'll think it's the same "old hunk of metal appliance" that she has seen me working on since last April. Eventually I'll probably get caught, but hopefully by then I'll have sold enough car parts to offset the cost of the second SSP. We have an agreement that if I want to buy something (car related) that I have to liquidate stuff I already have to pay for it. Who thinks I can pull this off, and who needs some steel wheel argent center caps?

I thought of you when I saw this:

They are Sho-Me No-Sho's, and they look like they're red.

Thanks, but I already have a set on the "after" MN SSP and the "before" MN SSP is going to be sans equipment. Would be nice to have a backup though.
