Off the market. Decided to keep it.

Your pinstriping looks like Steve Kafka did it.....duh, you listed that.

Kafka is a master Pinstriper.

I live near him. He pinstriped my company's $ 200,000.00 service truck when it was brand new, as a test before pinstriping our SSR's.

He also pinstriped Thumper's Bunny before I gave it to her for Christmas, four years ago, complete with a Disney Thumper on the tailgate, with blue eyes that my bride has.

JOHN317 · 12-23-2010, 07:41 PM

Very nice. $35k should be no problem if you compare to what's out there.

It is special having his signature on your R.
He is a professional artist by trade. And a legendary one.

Thanks John. I've always taken pride in it. The most beautiful ride I ever owned and will ever own. It almost cost a divorce...but might be worth it. I have never and will never park in a parking lot. Never took it to dinner or a movie. I can't let it sit unattended. I live in a community with a club house. I'd rather walk there in the rain than park next to anyone.
I go out for a joy ride now and then and put it back in the garage. I bought it to drive and have fun....but it turned into car shows or SSR runs....and I slowed up doing that.

I will be a great vehicle for some lucky buyer, I just hope he or she really appreciates it for what it is, a rolling Picasso.

Sorry to see this post X-Man...

I can vouch for the perfect care that the truck has been kept with though, it's mint. A really nice truck for a collector or driver...

All the best to you Frankie.

Good luck with the sale Frank, but I warn you that your heart will ache a little every time you see one go by once yours is gone.

I can attest to what Greg says. You may leave your SSR, but it never leaves you.

YellowDZH · 12-24-2010, 01:27 PM

Good luck selling it, OUTSTANDING SSR.

Every time I see one I light up. I always will. I admire people that have an R. It's a very special ride.

Red Cat · 12-24-2010, 03:02 PM

You already know how I feel about it.

I wish you the best.

SSRFather · 12-24-2010, 03:10 PM

Hope to see you at the Brass Monkey on Friday Jan 7.

I have seen Frank's truck at MV a while back...It's no secret he takes "excellent" care of it.

Could never leave. Being here changed my life for the better. The past years have been an unexpected joy ride. You guys are the best. I'm not on the site much only because I got into some other hobbies/interests that eat up the day & night. Regardless I know the light is always on here.
