Well end of an era for me, the 57 is on it's way to a new home. It went to a friend locally. On the one hand I loved looking at it and driving it, on the other hand, seeing it every time I went out to the shop it reminded me I couldn't drive it any more ( I just couldn't bring myself to put an automatic in it).
Well full speed ahead on the 68 Valiant (what ever the hell full speed is for me any more). If nothing else I'll have to look up a new avatar
