Finally after waiting 3 weeks for delivery, she finally made it.

Had to bribe the driver though or I would probably still be waiting.

Here are the pictures from before she left Colorado Springs (which is where she is from).

Purchased her on eBay in 3 hours and 18 minutes. Did everything wrong. Didn’t talk to the owner first, didn’t go see the car, basically didn’t investigate anything first. But…..

I did ask two good friends who know a lot about cars what they thought of it, before I bought it. Thank you Phil & George for all of your great advice.
