dave c Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Hi All, I can't believe I'm actually writing this but, MY CAR IS ON THE TRUCK. LEFT VEGAS TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D Of course we are the last stop. There are 3 stops in the Bay area, then on to Washington. Hopefully it will be here by the weekend. It was a long wait, but all the pain and frustration will soon fade once I see my long awaited baby. Dave wants to name it BAD A$$ BLING BLING. I don't think sooooo! (he said he was just kidding) but I'm sure he will come up with a name that will bug me. It's more like a Black Diamond.....all shiny and sparkly!! The chrome razors are just so cool. I'm almost afraid to drive it, but I'm sure I'll get over it quickly. LOL Soon to be Shelby Sherri in Seattle. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyGT/SC Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Sherri and Dave, that's super awesome! I'm so happy for both of you. Your patients is what helped keep me from not whining like a baby on this forum at times. Please do let us all know how your minute-by-minute experience goes when you first see the truck, see the doors open, see it unloaded, see all the dirt (I had to sneak that one in there), start her up for the first time, and of course, lay some rubber in front of your neighbor's driveway LOL. I'll be surprised if you both don't have an emotional breakdown as the long wait emits from your bodies from an overwhelming feeling of joy and relief. All the best, you deserve it!

dave c Posted July 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Just heard from the truck driver. At 6pm Pacific time just about ready to cross into Oregon. He thinks Friday night or Sat morn. at the latest. He wanted to know if I was a little anxious. What a stupid question. No take your time, I already waited 7 months, whats the rush He assured me that he wouldn't let the dealers drool on my car. We're the 5th stop now, instead of the 6th. Dave doesn't care if it's dark, he'll break out the flood lights. Getting down to just hours now. Unbelievable!!! Can't wait. Anybody have any recommendations for some good anxiety drugs!!!!!LOL Sherri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And welcome to the Shelby Family. BergShelby, Haven't heard a thing from the truck driver :angry: We've had some pretty nasty weather, as you know. I'm about ready to check on the status of his location though. Our anxiety level is so high right now. The silience is killing us. It figures though that the pouring rain should happen, when our daughter graduated from the U of W this year is just poured buckets and now it's raining again for the car delivery. Go figure!! (You'd think we lived in Seattle) oh ya, we do <_< Sherri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
