24V Renshaw 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Well its gone. After 5 years of putting my heart and soul into my Rado, its just been driven away by its new owner. :cry: I am happy it will be cherished and looked after, which is nice, but it still feels very weird. Still the hunt for a new project begins. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shaggy 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Thanks to you jay, you have given many of us fellow dubbers inspiration for our projects with this very car, and shows its achievable when you put blood sweat & tears into making a "dream" car like yours. Thankyou for making such a nice car, its been an inspiration to me and i am sure many other people. :thumbleft: Cant wait to see what your next project will end up like...

s.g 0 Posted July 15, 2006 just think of the next project waiting to happen and all them ideas waiting to be created. i can imagine it was hard to see it go (i am always gutted every time i sell a car) but a bigger and better project is just around the corner. mike_g60 is right , you have given inspiration to many of us in seeing that utter perfection is possible with hard work and dedication.

Supercharged 2 Posted July 15, 2006 Didn't even know it was for sale??? The for sale thread never made it onto the forum because Jay didn't put up a fixed price :lol: - same rules for everyone you see!! Anyways Jay - I think your mad for selling such a superbly finished car but if it's for a 911 I think we can make an exception! I would like to know how much it fetched tho - for something so unique with the amount of work thats gone into it I would value it at £25k altho I know realistically it would be unlikely to actually sell for that amount but if it went for anything less than half that then someone has got a serious bargain. Hope you stick around Jay 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supercharged - Someone got a serious bargain Please no! I'd really like to know what you got for it, anything remotely close to 10k seems to low for my liking. I wish i'd applied for a loan. :cry: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NickVR6 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Firstly Mike put it as well as anyone could. I did'nt post on your thread too often, mainly because i just stared at the screen with my tongue hanging out in ore. You, your car and last but definately not least your friendly nature and the whole way you go about things will be sorely missed around here by everyone. I've allways admired the fact that having built a car like that never went to your head and you did'nt molly coddle it either! I doubt anyone survived those picks without a shiver mate. Put up your feet, crack open a cold one and start that creative grey matter. I can't wait to get a hint of whats to come! I hope you've warned friends and relatives that you will be unavailable for comment for some time shortly, lol! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
