Well it finally happened today. The Firechicken started the long boat ride back to the states :cry: The good thing is it will be there when I go back to visit in Jun 06. I figure that I should be sitting in County Lockup within 24hrs after picking it up :wink: I can see it now......"Officer what do you mean speeding, I was only doing 160mph and I didn't see any speedlimit signs." I wanted to keep it here but the funds just wouldn't support it now that I have a new house. I guess I will be the time keeper for this season. 8)

What? Well, I think you made the best decision anyway. I am sure having it setting in your Garage will be more satisfying.

Sorry to hear ... did you at least get the decals on before it left?

Guess it's time to change your signature... ;)

The 3 peat would be nice for this year, that would be a hell of a way to close out my Germany tour.

Yep, knowing it's sitting in the garage next to the 73 Firechicken safe and sound is a relief.

Got the stickers and installed, Thanks again Garry!!

I would welcome the opportunity to drive the Focus.......I promise I won't pull the shifter out of the fllor :wink: !!

Sure hated to see it go but $$$ was the determining factor. Who knows, I might be able to catch an Auto-X there (Atlanta) before coming back here in Jul.
