Talking comparts car has a new home.

Hello everyone. Just want to let everybody know that I bought the car that rudy once owned. It has a nice warm home and she is asleep and waiting for warm weather. Everyone will still see this beautiful car around the metro area. I would like to me up with any around the twin cities area. Let me know about any get together. Right now Its going to be a weekend driver, and at some point might look into some upgrades. As for now, I'm just going to enjoy this sweet ride. Thanks..... Derek

Congrats on the purchase and I know you will enjoy your new ride! Just to give you a little heads up, she doesn't like to go slow and the top feels very much at home stowed at any temp above 45.

Take care and welcome to the Crossfire family!

PS, my name is Rudy, with a D. Guessing the guys here are gonna be on this like a pitbull on a meat wagon. LOL At least I know it's all gonna be in good fun.

We love you Ruby!

She would never say where she came from
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
Nobody knows
She goes and goes

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothing's gained
And nothing's lost
At such a cost

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

There's no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind.
Ain't life unkind?

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Still I'm gonna miss you

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

miss you..?

Congrats on the purchase! You will have to take the car out to a few events this year (such as the Crossfires Across America event in Colorado this summer - I know, shameless plug!).

Glad you got Rudy's car.
He is a friend of mine and took meticulous care of that car.
I met him at several meets while he had your SRT.

Here are a couple cuties and Rudy by your car from when he was in Chi-town for a open house in 2009 at Eurocharged Performance.

Enjoy and hope to see ya somewhere this summer

Gary

Hayley and Samantha are two of my favorites of the Eurocharged Girls. A lot of fun to talk to, and not so hard on the eyes either.

Derek,

Congratulations on the car! I'm still new here, still go out and look at my roadster, and just smile. You'll begin to notice that the excitement doesn't wear off.

I'm already wishing for an SRT, and can't begin to push the limit of my non-supercharged Crossfire.

Enjoy!!

Michael

LOL! Congrats on the car, Derek, we'll be doing a GTG here in the cities soon. That one is a nice one, lotta incest going on as you have Rudy's car now, I have Beaners parts on mine, or will shortly, so there's alot of trading being done and connections all over being made. This is a great group and you'll have fun. If I could have figured out a way to have both in my garage you'd have never got the opportunity to buy that one!

BTW, remember, Ruby, don't take your love to town.

Congratulations and enjoy the car. I was wondering who bought Rudy's car. You got a "GEM" former owner Rudy is a great guy and very helpful/knowledgeable (like the other forum members...great bunch of people). I'm proud to be a member and associated with the forum.

LOL! did you mean" Ruby, go to town with your love?" ya gotta love this Rudy. Y'know we're on this as an expression of how much you're liked, so you know the drill! BTW, I do think your name did just in fact get changed among friends. No going back now.
