Monday or Tuesday, man they will have the tires wore off it by then.
Its got to be driving you crazy to have her so close and yet so far.

If I'm lucky I might get to drive mine this weekend but probably not.

Guys I went to the warehouse today to finally see my car again!

When they loaded the car in the container (LA) I guess they parked it wrong. My front tire was flat.
The warehouse dude inflate the tires so lets hope it holds air :brickwall:

Here some pics I could snap quickly

and a Caprice (I think).

I can see wanting to get a Charger over there (obviously), and even the Waggoneer. But a Caprice?!?! Is the Donk fad making it over to Europe?

I went to a dealers auction last year with a dealer buddy. I was shocked at the prices they were getting for the 4-door full sized cars and X-cop cars. My buddy saw one of his old pals bidding on a few and asked him what the big deal was. He said that they get resold to bidders overseas. They are used for TAXI'S in many countries and can get parts for many years for the full size stuff. Age didn't really seam to matter from what I saw. Definitely not miles. If they ran, they got bid on and WAY higher than you can imagine.. They just don't want rust, so coming from Florida and a port right here makes for big business...

You should have a road side repair warranty with those tires.   Big O will fix it free.   :2thumbs: :icon_smile_big:
