Csx 4802

[bret a ewing]

Once upon a time I owned this car, CSX 4802. If anyone knows what happened to it I would love to hear about it.

Last known location, Italy.

Best,

Bret.

Bret - you sold CSX4802, and now you have, by your own description a "Look-a-like cobra POS"

Is there more to this story? I would have been looking at upgrading, not downgrading if I was selling a CSX car

Cheers!

Hello Glen,

When I registered with CC way back in 2003 I owned a Contemporary Cobra. The pictures in my profile BTW.I didn't subscribe to the "real vs authentic vs original" nonsense. Not then - not now. So I just kept the sig line without updating to the CSX (2003) and later a Kirkham (2010). I felt those who knew me understood my methodology.
Anyway, like doing a search on an old girlfriend I was curious to see what if any changes had been made to my old gal.
And yes she went to Italy. Sold to a gentleman named Emanuel. I was the original owner of CSX 4802. Waited 2 years from the time it was ordered to take delivery. It was sold as a non-roller with a branded title due to a less than minor mishap.

So there's your story.........

Best regards,

Bret.

Peter, that is correct. Have not been able to contact Emanuel.

Best,

Bret.
