Selling my Elf

Bought yet another classic so to keep the number in my driveway at a reasonable level (7 classics plus some non-minis) I want to offer up the Riley for sale. I was building a new engine for it, so it currently sits without an engine, but I can have it configured pretty much however a potential owner would want it (disc brakes, drum brakes, 10" wheels, 12" wheels, 998 engine 1275 engine... Price varies from $4500 to $6500 depending. Ad posted in marketplace on this forum.

And 3,235 miles from Maine so that puts him somewhere on the left coast.

You are the same distance, live in Maine also, or are on the left coast also?

Then you literally drove past my house. I live right next to the Androscoggin River as you pass over the river going north on I-95. My property abuts the highway and you can see my house during the winter, but not during the summer.

I haven't seen Maine in the winter for about 12 years! I think I used to stop at a little Hallmark store just off the highway (heading north). I think there's a grocery store there too where I made a pit stop. Had I known your house was so close by... . Well, I didn't have a cool MINI then.

I've updated the pics on my photobucket account for anyone interested. BTW: It's not pink, it's red. For some reason, the paint showed up as nearly pink like nail polish or something.
