Saying goodbye
« on: Saturday,September 03, 2022, 05:26:33 PM »
Saying goodbye to another one; too many cars, not enough time left in the lifetime. The new owner has already introduced himself to the forum and will pipe in when he's ready.
I believe 460443 will be good hands. He's a young guy with cars already in his back ground, passing on to a new generation?

Joji is amazing and he's been the greatest help I could have asked for in taking this leap into Lotus ownership! Thankfully he's pretty close so I'll be able to reach out if I'm ever stumped or need expertise. That and the first serious shakedown drive has to be the 60 or so miles from my house to his ;)

I'll be starting a new thread soon letting y'all in on my plans and progress but suffice it to say I'm beyond excited  ^-^

I know Joji will be a great source of inspiration and information! You couldn't have picked a better seller. But don't be afraid to ask us questions too and for sure, post about your progress! Did I mention that we like pictures?  :D

Oh don't fret, plenty of questions will be asked! Both pics of the car and the progress will be shared ASAP and I'll gladly keep y'all apprised of my progress.  :beerchug: to the next project!
