Always one of my favourites. But hey, you can't keep them all.

Re: Hell just froze over.... Gumby is sold!
Usually when a guy sells something it is because he has his eye on something else! Do tell?

Re: Hell just froze over.... Gumby is sold!
I have come to realize over the years of building cars (and years ago trucks) no matter how much I love em when building them and then driving/showing them eventually they sell. Kinda just caretakers for a period of time, then it's the next guys turn.
That's why I "never say never".

Re: Hell just froze over.... Gumby is sold!
Well, February was the coldest month on record for many areas in the US... makes sense...
Congrats on the sale. I'm sure it had to be one hell of a good offer to let that one go.

Re: Hell just froze over.... Gumby is sold!
I know what's up. It's always the reason we sell our precious stock. You two are expecting a baby, right?
