Just letting everyone know that I have purchased another Vintage Super Widebody that I will be keeping and I will be selling my midnight blue Vintage Super Widebody very soon.

Here is a link to pictures of my blue car.  http://kvan.hopto.org/speedster.htm

 

Here are pictures of the Vintage Super Widebody I will be keeping.  Yes Vince, it has bee hives!  It also has a full genuine water buffalo interior and a louvered engine lid.

Well, mostly my wife!  Sally really loves the color combination and the grain of the cherry red water buffalo leather, but so do I and I also love the louvered engine lid and bee hives.

I'm keeping my engine and putting the 1915 engine from this car, which only has 5,295 miles on it, into my blue car.  My blue car has IRS and this car is swing axle, but I'm ok with that.  The person who ends up buying my blue car will be getting a VERY nice car.

Hopefully, my blue car will be listed on eBay later this week.  Here is the drive video that I took yesterday.  I took a little different route through the foothills than all of my other videos and I usually mount the camera on the rear cowling, but decided to wear it on my head this time.  Learned that I need to point it a little bit more downward rather than straight ahead, but still not bad.  Be sure to watch it full screen and click the little gear to select 1080P HD for the best quality.  Watch for the wild turkey crossing the road at 10:26.

After I made the joke I thought twice about it - hoping Mr. Sloan wouldn't be offended.

 

In the end, my devil may care attitude won out.

Alan is correct, that would be Mrs. Sloan, but you can call her Sally.  I'm not offended.  She is a beautiful lady (both inside and out) so I understand the attention she gets when I post pictures with her in them.

Yes, my blue car is beautiful and I wasn't sold on the two-tone car when I first saw pictures of it, but seeing it in person sold me on it.  More importantly, Sally likes it better, so what can I do!?!?!?  Like Anand told me, "happy wife, happy life!"
