It's gone...

Post by Keys »

Well, friends...the semi-famous Red Baron is gone. A nice young man from Tucson drove all the way up here this afternoon and picked it up. I think he'll be a very happy man...

The Red Baron served you well Keys! I hope the person that is now owned by the Baron stops into MB now and again!

I hope this isn't the last we see of you too!

I found an '87 Honda Helix for $600...just needs a rear hub...already found one for $65. It will be turned into a "Mad Max-mobile". Already have the plans drawn up! Half the plastic will be removed (stupid trunk made my ass look too big anyway) and the rest will be flat black. Shall be emblazoned with my clan crest and the slogan; "Real Men Wear Kilts". I have already named it "Sgian Dubh"...gaelic for "Black Knife".

P.S. I'll still be around...

Mad Max – Cool

Please show pictures when you’re done; so we know what to look out for when we are in your parts.

Keys,
Did the kid pick the Baron up in a Sebring convertible? That would have been sweet!

Keys -

Thanks for all the pioneering you've done for us on the Buddy - mileage, troubleshooting, mods. Looking forward to updates on the new project and your continued input here!
