I delivered my old Celica to its new owner today. 7 years and countless dollars of ownership has numbed me to any real pain.

The new owner works for Car Guys, so keep and eye out for it at their events.

Really, they aren't hard to work on. I did plenty of it, and probably would be talked into doing more for free. Sorry I sold it before yall got the chance to come by and see it. The offer was just a little too good to refuse.

I'm w/ Wes on this. I only drove that car once, but it was a blast. It was a labor of love done the right way.

The new owner is driving it like he stole it. Assuming it ain't done blown up (or the owner isn't in jail), I expect it will be seen on the road course circuit soon enough :)
