    Bummer Ghost.    :walkaway:   I feel your pain, as I have also been forced to sell nice Mopars in the past.  It has always been tough to let them go, but you will get over it and move on.  Sooner or later, you will get another great car.  So, hang in there my friend....     :cheers:

    Oh man Ghost, I am so sorry you had to sell Jessica Lynn.  At least you know she is going to a good Mopar home.  In time you will get another car.  Just get your fix hanging out here!  Best of luck to you with your Florida plans.  Sounds like a great adventure!

    :iagree:  I had my son talked into it and everything. That is saying something when your kid is a fastback fan. The timing with our vacation is about the only reason I did not inquire about it further. I love the old notchbacks.

    At least I know the guy I sold it to, so I might be able to get her back someday.

    Probably won't find another one soon.  Plan is to move to Florida next year, go back to college, and once I graduate and find a job, then I'll start looking for a replacement.

    Sorry to se you had to sell you Barracuda, Ghost.  :'( 

    Priorities are important.  Sounds like you have a solid plan for your life, best wishes and good fortune toward your goals!  :thumbsup:

    A long time ago, I sort of was in your situation.  I had a well optioned '69 LeMans convertible that I bought to retore, one day..  ::) I eventually sold it for LESS than half what I paid for it (So don't feel bad about what you got...) because I was going to go to college.  I figured that instead of fixing this one up (With what money?  I didn't have much then...) I would go to school, get a degree, then get a car that was up and running.  That's how I ended up with my Challenger.  :icon16:

    Do what you gotta, Ghost.  We'll still be here, make sure you stick around!  :thumbsup:
