My wife and I talked about it and decided it was time for a new chapter in our retirement years. A nice street Mopar isn't out of the question if we see something we like. Selling the car you had that long is tough. But looking ahead at a possible classic Mopar street car is a good idea.

Went through that a while back with my Duster - drove it into the buyer's trailer for its last music in my hands. And damn, it sounded good. But it went to a great guy who appreciates it and its history, he loves the car, and calls me from time to time to update me on races. I'm not done yet, but the next car will be less intense (translation: slower ![laugh2 laugh2](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/custom/laugh2.gif) ), after I've completed moving.

Well Ted I know you have been kicking this around for several years so you didn’t jump right into it. Sorry to see you sell it but now you are free to make your next move. It’s not like you have to give up the sport. Take care buddy.

Glad to hear it is going to a good home. In the end they are just things and the memories made with them is what matters and we take with us.

It's sad to see it go and that part of your life ends but I think in the end you'll get a lot of enjoyment out of a street cruiser. Now you just have to find the right street car that makes you happy when you drive it. ![up up](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/custom/thumbs_up.gif)
