Re: [doc] Dan -- Maddie for Sale ?

["Daniel Willis" <danielpwillis@xxxx>]

Hi all,

Best make it offical (sorry Chris!)

Maddie is now the property of Chris Nicholson. If anyone can bring her back 
to life it is him. I recently visited him and we talked at length about the 
car and her future. Chris gave me a fair deal on her and I will continue to 
web site best I can.

I am STILL going to be an active member of the club... which brings me to 
Ally Pally. Where the hell is it? When is it? Etc. All helps please!

The fates decided this time and I know I've made the right decision. Though 
Chris'll hate me for saying this - if anyone underestimates exactly what 
needs to be done give him a mail... his first estimate on "cosmetics" was 
around £5k! Heh... All the best to her (and of course Chris) and as he said 
"You WILL see her road legal" (he couldn't bare the thought of me parting 
her out! Bless!).

Martin, I may even join the convoy for this European jaunt now.... ;o)

Dan
Ex-Vin #5641... but the project continues! >>To be continued...>>
