Well the day I have been dreading has finally arrived!
The "Red Headed Mistress" was loaded on a car hauler this morning and is headed for a port on the East Coast. She has been purchased by a Cobra enthusiast from France. My wife says that the French do know how to take good care of their mistresses so I should be happy. Seriously though the gentleman who bought my car has owned several 289 FIA cars and presently owns a Backdraft, so I think that the car is in good hands. He seems to appreciate the cars history. I truly wish that she could have stayed in the USA but it was not meant to be. She will now start a new chapter in her history in Europe.
I now know how many of you have felt watching your cars go down the road to new owners. Truly a sad day for me.
