Hey all, this is a link to my website page. I'm currently trying to sell my Mini Cooper. If you know anyone looking for one please help out and pass it along. Thanks.
This year www.southeastwheelsevetns.com is sponsoring a unique project and I think most of you will enjoy a glimpse of the man with the brains behind it. Bob Sarda is working on a project to be the fasted man on steam powered wheels in a 1972 Honda! Check out his Blog!

Thanks for the kind words. It was a pleasure to meet everyone at the World Of Wheels.
