Bummer Ben.
Doesn't cost if it just sits around but if you need the coin good luck with sale and hope it goes to a good home and lives on.

great news mate you should mary elle again just to make sure she doesn't get away (not many like her around) ... It would not be right seeing someone
else in your car after all the work you have done..

That is awesome news..... Sounds like the wife knows that her fella needs to be happy too.... Dubbin is your release, it's an escape from everything,
it's good for the soul, good for the heart and good for the home.... Elle is my hero!
Guess this means I can pit for you again at Warwick?

It's great news that you are keeping the car Ben... Really is.... And I'd love to give you guys a hand at some future events if I can.... Getting
over there cost me a few bob for the weekends festivities, but it was totally worth it... Catching up with all my old Hellbug mates and the rest of
the ol'guard was massive!... Again, I can't thank you and Morgan enough for your hospitality and good vibes all weekend... If I don't make Warwick
(work commitments you understand), Sydney is definitely booked in for next year.
