A loss...

I try to make the majority of my posts upbeat, happy, positive....this one I can't really spin that way.  On October 8th of this year while on the way to a show at Gilmore Car Museum Red was in a terrible accident.  Unfortunately he has been declared a total loss and we have had to accept that he will not be seeing the road again.  Red was out and about at many shows this year and for that we are grateful.  He kept his passengers safe and none of us had injuries beyond aches and pains.  We are so terribly sad to lose such a precious member of our family.  Andy purchased Red brand new and did all of the work to him so he meant quite a lot to us.  We have purchased him back from the insurance company so now he sits broken in our garage.  Now for some positive spin, we have purchased a 2001 SS convertible in red that is virtually a twin with just over 16,000 miles.  We are waiting for him to be delivered from Florida as I write this.  Our plan is to rebuild Red on this twin car, Red 2.0 if you will.  Every part we can salvage will be saved and hopefully Red will live on, this time with all of our love being fed into the build.  It is hard but we have hope and look forward to unveiling Red 2.0 soon!!
