Hello,
When the car left my house Antonito is where it was headed. I had just painted it for the last time. I had removed the brake staff for clearance reasons and placed it in the car. It was not easy to see her go, but my age was catching up with me and I knew it had to be preserved, so after 25 years of caring for her I had to say good-bye .What is kind of funny I think my wife misses the car more!
