Fin Visitor
Posted: Sat Oct 23, 2010 10:08 am
A couple days ago I was out working in my garage and a fellow pulled up in my driveway. My new garage is a little bit behind my house but visible from road and with garage door open you can see rear of my '59.
Anyway he comes walking up and says (with an accent) "I see fins". Then I knew he was ok and not a zoning inspector or whatever.
Turns out he's from Finland working here in the area at a hospital repairing their expensive medical machines. And he is a Mopar enthusiast. Has a '70 Cuda convert and a Dodge Charger among others, but also likes "fin" cars. He asked me if I was interested in selling mine. Before he finished sentence I said "no". And he laughed and said "that was fast".
He also said he has a friend in Finland that has a 1957 Plymouth 4-door and needed a bumper and a rear door. I told him about Forward Look site so maybe he'll pass that onto friend.
It was a nice visit and I told him to stop by again.
