I checked historical odometer photos and I put ~40K "miles" (speedo is way off) on it from 2007-2015, but in the last 6 years it's picked up around 5K -- most of the real journeying was on my time!

In totally different news, I'm (finally) starting on a new ambitious car project that I'm considering posting about on the realm in the non-510 area -- a bike motor powered project that's even weirder (in some ways) than Julian's 3-wheeler.... more to come on that. :)

My car has been sold again (@$18k I believe -- a steal!), and the new owner is returning it to "Derek Spec" -- this warms my heart!

Jeez, at $18k, that is a steel - you’re right!
Is it still somewhat local to you?
I’ve been following your new build, can’t keep a good man down!

It's down in San Diego -- the guy who bought it also has a very nice C10 Skyline, so it's in good hands. https://www.instagram.com/miguelrojas_02/

Glad to hear your following along my latest adventure -- it's a wild one.
