What a great outcome. I remember reading the first post and my 1st thought was that you were not going to find it, and if you did, wouldn't get to buy it back.
Then I see it wrapped and ready for shipment.

Congratulations.

Default Shes back!

She's back!!!!!! And aside from a few minor tweaks, it looks very well taken care of. I'm very happy and relieved. One in a hundred chance and it worked out.

Those are only best of show or best in category. Those are the only ones I kept when I sold the car. There was about 100 others I got rid of.
