    I'm going to be 78 in June. This past year has been a challenge health wise. I feel as thought I aged 30 years overnight.
    This was caused by a drug that was used with my radiation treatments. Most people don't get all the reactions I am experiencing. Then there's me!
    So, I am thinking of selling the coupe. I have been looking for another 32 five window project. Keeping busy even though I struggle helps me get through the day. I hope my reactions go away at some point soon. In the meantime
    I will think about selling the coupe. It's probably going to take someone just making me an offer I can't refuse at this point. Hope this did not bore you. I'm just thinking out loud!

    Mark,
    Great craftsmanship and attention to detail! Loved seeing the engine with the rebuilder's name engraved into it.

    Your thoughts definitely not boring me. Whatever lies ahead, another project or savoring this one, may you have great opportunities and enjoyment.

    Happy motoring or wrenching!

    Can't beat the original 25 louver side panels, keep the hood closed and see the engine, they cool much better than the 20 louver sides. HRP

    It would be hard to give that '32 up at any price, it's fantastic. Hope you feel better soon.

    Ok Mark, here’s a plan.
    Rest up and tune up between now and July. Then have a great journey/adventure/drive from your place all the way out to Deuce Days in Victoria, BC this summer.
    Then depending on whether you want to fly home from Victoria, Vancouver, Kelowna or Calgary, I could help you with that.
    PS: I’m only half kidding with this idea.
    :):cool:;)

    The for sale ad needs to state:

    Come with money and a permission slip from your wife!
