Hey man, nice to see ya got her back together
I like your choice in wheels, the gold goes good with the blue, and are far better than your other wheels you had on there.
Had much of a chance to get some miles on the 5-speed yet?
We should meet-up sometime, it's always nice to spend some time with guys interested in the same type of car.
Take it easy,
Leon.
