Dave: It was great meeting you and your lovely wife. HOpe you two can come stay with us some time. We would love to have you! Wow! That is some paint job! I'm getting the laser blue with black top and stripes and plan on doing red, white and blue pin work on all the black parts of the vehicle.
The SSR is working incredibly well thanks to Wingrider (Bill) a GM technician. If we had guys like him here in hampton roads I most likely would not be selling my SSR! Thanks Bill. She is purring like a kitten.
I guess I better get ready to be roasted alive at MV!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ordered my new mini club man yesterday.
We just got a mini convertible for Debbie. If you can get the John Cooper Works Kit on it, you won't miss the SSR as much. The add on takes the horsepower over the 200 level and makes a quick car quicker. It is really a kick to drive. Good luck. Ron

Ed, I'm glad that your ssr is working good now, It's amazing how much better things work when the part is installed correctly.

Not sold yet, but man, do I have a ton of interested folks that want it! I need to keep her until the new ride comes around the middle of June, however, she is still up for grabs. Had it in the paper one day and had a zillion calls already! Cheezzzeee Lewize!
We are already involved wtih them and will continue to be SSRfanatics too! My wife has had hers since 2003 and it runs awesome and has amazing customer service. We did the Guinness Run last year with Rudy Bosch from Survivor and beat the English record for the most minis in a line in a parade. It takes them 5 days to make the thing and 5-7 weeks to get it here from Oxford, England!

It appears that "DanSSR" is about to take possession of Black Betty this weekend. He is flying up to pick her up! Hopefully all the financial details will be worked out for it to happen this time! He is getting a great vehicle at an amazing price! I decided to sell it to him for 18K, including the extended warranty, the factory manuals, the light up windsuppressr, and a host of other goodies! Enjoy it Dan...glad it is going to a fellow teacher! Get ready for the ride of your life on the way back to Florida man! The weather is supposed to be perfect and you now own a convertible rocket!

Congratulations, DanSSR. Glad to hear that Black Betty will still be in the Fanatics family!
I got caught up in work and traveling overseas and couldn't keep Ed on the fence about finishing the deal. Wasn't fair to Ed. So Ed went ahead and sold it. He had plenty of buyers and I was over streched with work. Ed and I agreed it wasn't fair for him to have to wait on me. So he reposted and sold black betty. Neither he or I had an issue with anything. Just my life got extremely busy and I couldn't keep up. Ed and me are fine and I will look again later I just can't do it right now. Plus with the latest thing to happen to me my heart isn't in anything like that right now.Nautical Dave
