Well, I have to say goodbye soon to all my fellow F-body friends. It was a pleasure being a part of the board but unfortunetly Steve and I have decided to pursue our photography business. We got an offer we just cant refuse that would get us off to a really good start in it. The offer is taking us to England of all places where my cousins live and they actually played a big part in this offer. We will be there at least 18 months working as staff photographers for a magazine before our other plans go into action . We didnt want to say anything because we were waiting until everything was finalized. Because of thise move we decided our best thing to do is put the cars up for sale. There's really no reason to pay to have them shipped there nor to have them stored. I've been very upset about the fact I wont have the car but we need the money for the move and other thigns as the company is only footing part of the bill. Steve isnt quite as attached to his car like I am so this is extremely difficult for me. In fact I waivered many times about even not going to England but there just really is no sense in refusing this offer..It will be hard not knowing anyone but my cousins and getting used to all the weird things they do over there but hopefully someday we'll make it back over here. Possibly in 4 years if things go as planned...although the plans are very sketchy.
We've made so many friends through the cars and it's sad to say goodbye...in fact Im tearing up as I write this. I hope we can all stay in touch. I dont know how much we'd even frequent the board once we are gone over there...afterall we wont even have the cars. So I guess thats all I have to say for now.

Well, girlfriend.....it's been nice knowing you this short time.....I know y'all will be successful in England, what with all the great photo-ops & stuff....
....the only thing I'm a little concerned about is the selling of your cars. Steve won't have tooooo much trouble selling his....maybe he can ask a really low price and dump it on some high school kid.....but yours.....sweetheart....I have no EARTHLY idea WHO would buy it, sad to say.....the colors are just all wrong.....and those godawful flames....what WERE you thinking????
Aaaaaannnnyyyyyway.....hope you can get rid of them somehow.....and good luck!! We'll miss ya!!! Posted by Cavy Dan (Member # 1352) on :
Awww.....I'm really happy for you both that you are following your dreams. Cars can come and go....but...you're stuck with us forever!! Remember, you dont need to own an f-body to come and visit here. If you get a chance, post here as much as ya like!
Defintely jealous of you goign to England. It is REALLY hard to get a job over there and live there. I woudl do anything to move over there, I loved it there, however short my stay was in London.
Good luck selling the cars! Yours will DEFINITELY need a good home, however hard it may be to sell them....at least its spring!!

What is the website. I am really into photography, and take any chance to see anothers work!
Posted by FireChicken (Member # 2067) on :
I was never fooled. I honestly think you would kill someone, in front of their own mother, on camera, before letting go of your flamin' bird.
Besides, Ive been to England, and I know for a fact that..
1. They have internet (so you could still stay on the board).
and
2. They have fcars that have been shipped over there.
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Congrats to you and Steve, when opportunities like this come by you just can't pass them up. When you come back to the States you can always buy another fbody and fix it up, but you can't do that with a once in a lifetime opportunity. Lifes to short, follow your dream. Good luck to you guys!! By the way, I was born in London.
