I haven't been able to get in touch with the new owner of my old PA. I still have the PA's rims at my house. So if you're reading this Dave, give me a call bro. Hope all is well with you and yours my friend.

Correct, the car was sold. But it went to a great home and it is getting restored by someone who has more time to dedicate to it than I did.

Are you the mysterious gentleman who got Zach's car?
Be gentle discussing the late avatar, as Zach will always treasure it.
Cheers, Zach if you see this.

Hey RotaryDude!
Good to know you got the car. I spent a night a Zach's place the last time I was in holidays in the US just before he sold it.
I would love to own one of these. We got a few of them over here, none highly modded like yours though.
Check out the member rides pics in the Australian section for a picture of one of our local factory imported convertable cars.

I recently asked my daughters 9 and 12, "of all daddy's cars which one do you like the best?" Their reply, "the red convertible silly, that's my car." Don't worry they won't be getting it for a long long time.

Mr. Dave,
You are a gentleman and a scholar - as well as an avatar owner - and I see why Zach slept better after selling you the car.
Yes we should start a thread for an avatar registry. Easy to do.
The sweetness about your car is it's stock originality. My avatar has been a project from birth, owned by the publisher of the rotary rocket magazine, Curtis L. May. It is an original avatar, was the flagship for the Rotary Club of America, was sponsored by many sources: Mariah with a wide body kit, Recaro with leather seats and matching interior, Alpine with a soundsystem, powered by a large screaming single turbo and called the "ultima 1."
It has a total of 7000 miles on it and before I get bashed to death, was unsmoggable, unregisterable and had been sitting undriven for over fifteen years when I got it, before I switched it to a smoggable, now currently registered
T2 setup. A single turbo will never be legal on this car in California, and so with a careful plan to keep this car out of the scrap heap, I wanted it legally registered and driveable to show off it's legacy.
It has all of the bells and whistles to drool over, while preserving it's widebody stock look, if one can say that: upgraded stage 4 turbo, fuel system, suspension, new rack and pinion steering, custom aluminum radiator/fan and intercooler, polished manifold. Not quite stock.
Catch you laater.
