    Hi Platas,

    I haven't decided which road I will take. But based on I what I've seen so far, it will have a lot of curves. Which is the only way to go.

    This story reminds me of a friend of mine who bought a Speedster from a body shop for $1200, only to get it home and realize it had a cabriolet VIN number, he said whatever and raced it for 20+ years, only to have a man show up and offer him $250,000 for the car in the mid 90s, apparently his wore out old Speedster with the weird VIN was none other than Speedster #1.
