Here's a pic at SS8 of Dave looking at his engine bay. With a Mountain Dew in hand, of course

Hey i remember that day! He then went to your car to show off your bridgeport. His car looks very nice in this pic, and of course his favorite drink, teh DEW.

Sandi don't leave this site ever. And I am almost off the crutches, my leg is doing a lot better.

October 8, 2005. His response to that picture was "I have a big Jay Leno chin!"

Here are a couple pictures of his FD when he first got it:




And here they are in avatar size.

I love those pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I went with Dave the first time he saw the FD. He just fell in love with it and so did I. Do you remember his black RX7? When it got stolen he was just so devastated. The police were no help at all. The FD helped to take his mind of the other car.

I don't know if I told all of you but...last week I went and got a copy of the 22 page accident report. They said the left rear tire blew out and that was probably the reason he lost control of the car. Do you remember the nails sticking up that were circled by the CHP? he was going 60 MPH, but the way they reported it, it sounded like he was going MUCH Faster. I hope all of you know David would never intentionally hurt another person... Thank you for the great pictures.

Also how do I use Daves car as my avatar? Help.

Love,
Sandi

To use it as your avatar, save it, then go to your "user cp" at the top of the page, go to edit avatar, go to "custom avatar" at the bottom, and select dave's FD using the browse feature.

I don't remember what his FC looked like, but the FD certainly was an upgrade!

To date, I still have his # in my celphone. I cant forget the look at his face when he came over to pick up a few old school parts. Although he didnt say anything, I read his mnd: Clean your garages and junk whatever you dont need!!!

Well the first 6 months have passed and I am still here. You guys have helped me to see a side of Dave I didn't know. Thanks Again
