New from Michigan

Post by nikki_supercharged93 »

Hi, I'm Nikki and I'm in the process of buying my first Bonneville. It's a 1993 SSEi, beautiful Red color. I've named him Sammy Dean (I name my cars; don't ask questions). Some of you may remember it as Ryan Toth's old Bonneville, Crash. I'm already completely in love with the car and it's not even technically mine yet! Is that normal? =)

Yes, it is.

Welcome!! I know Ryan put a lot of time and money into that car, and I'm sure it will be well taken care of.
Bye Bye:

Thanks everybody! :)

Ryan has beautifully taken care of that car since I've know him and Stephanie so I know that it's in great shape and is gonna last me a while, especially since I babysit for Ryan and Stephanie a few times a week, and if Ryan sees one little thing wrong with it, he's gonna be all over it and help me out with it.

I, too, am surprised he's giving it up, but I'm glad he is. He's having a bit of a hard time letting go, but he has his Blazer to play with right now, so that'll keep him occupied for a while :)

And yes, Ryan, you still get visitation.... :banana:

Anybody who's coming up for the meet at Ryan's will see it...it's a little banged up because I hit a deer over the winter, but I hope to get it fixed over the summer, just need to find the parts for it.
