Wow Troy; that's sad; I know how much you like your car. I wish your situation improves so that you can either keep it or replace it with another one down the road.

Troy, oh no man! This news breaks my heart too. I'm sure that you will make the right decision for you. Peace, brother.

Troy

I also have some miscellaneous parts (009 Dist, Blue Coil, and some other stuff) that also goes with the car.

Troy, my man.. I heard the news last week.. Can not beleive that you are selling, but I understand why and gotta say I am very proud to be on a site that people see were their proiroties lay and how someone can make a decision, even if it is not the popular one. One reason I bought my Speedie is because I listened to your comments and insight here. Some of you may not think that you have a lot of pull, but to those of us that are just learning about this fantastic little TUB's you truely do, and we appreicate you. So don't sweat the small stuff and continue to do what you do, and GOOD things will continue to happen! God loves ya and so do MOST folks here.. I can't speak for Vince! LOL...

Thanks for everything and don't be a stranger here! remember your just selling a car NOT dying!

Speedster "D"

Speedster D, funny you should mention my name.....
My pappy used to say, "son" Don't pet the sweaty things",
or maybe that was, "don't sweat the petty things" can't quite remember how it went, Didn't listen to him either way, but,
Illness is a reason to sell a speedster, I understand that, fact is, that will happen to most of us, as old as some of us are, but a sappy story about family issues...whats more important than keeping the Dad happy.....buy the wife a few pair of shoes, tell the kids their already spoiled enough, and go for a cruise......
(its a good thing my wife never comes on this site, but the shoe thing does work for me, she has a closet full of them)

Sorry to hear of the need to sell, Troy. I've benefitted from your advice.
If you're ever in Baltimore (and if I ever get done with the car) you're sure welcome to use mine while you're in town.

Hey Vince!

My pop used to say..."don't MAKE me stop this car and come back there and knock your young a** into next week"! - I don't recall anything from the 7 days following pop's comment!

...uh, sorry for the highjack, Troy!

Hopefully, you'll eventually get another Speedy, or at least we can expect to see you at next year's Paso Robles event!

Best of luck!

Troy,
Sorry to hear about your problems. Best of Luck

Troy

Sad to hear that Troy; same to Jane; but you caught me off guard now Jane! You were just starting to upgrade your new car!!

Car is still for sale. I have added new pictures to my profile.
Troy

Nice speedster with all the right equipment
If not for the additional cost of enclosed carrier shipping, I would grab this one, a great deal for someone!

CAR IS SOLD!
Brad and Debbie of Laguna Beach are the new owners. Last seen they were heading for the coast hwy for the trip home.

Good Luck and Love the car as much as I have.

Troy

Congrats on the sale Troy but hope you get everything sorted out at home soon so that you can replace it!
