Bye bye MeloYeloX....

True Classic
...sent 'im down the road today.
T'was a great cruiser for last coupla summers.
Wasn't even for sale, but as has happened in the past,
I gotta call from a friend...
"Any Xs for sale?"
"Yeah...coupla derelicts."
"Already have a derelict...looking for turnkey."
"Well...was planning on Ebaying MeloYeloX next spring."
"OK, I'll stop by."

Three delightful hours later,
after showing all fine points of MeloYeloX,
comprehensive ownership docs back to Day1,
and Lezesig's incredible documentation of his processes,
it was pronounced "sold".

One of the best X's I've owned.
Mostly due to the PO before me...The Legendary Alien, Lezesig.
Yep...Xweb's X-pat massaged it.
Then it entered The Cosmic Garage for MM treatment.
And this is the result...

Sad to see it go, but as Steven Wright pointed out:
"You can't have everything"
(pause)
"Where would you put it?"

Returning to RaceX project for Winter 2010,
so the DarkBlueX can be returned to street duty.
 
Jeeeeeeez, Mike.......!!!

........that X is irreplaceable, mate!!!!! :shock2:

I can definitely forsee the day when you will say to yourself "whatever the hell made me sell THAT car"????

cheers, Ian - NZ
 
Great time with MM

The Irish dreamer had a great 3 hrs with the legendary MM. He walked me through the joys of owning a nice X.. Great Driving too! After 3 hrs. I bought Melo Yello. She is home tucked away in the garage waiting for the next day off. Thanks Mike for your friendship and knowledge with a greenhorn like me!
 
Peter... YOU'VE BEEN ROBBED!

Looks like the Olde Rascal copped the Alien's Fuel Pressure-Regulator-Filter-Pressure-Guage and Flux Capacitor from the engine compartment!

Looks like there will be NO Intergalactic-Time Travel for you!

Welcome to Earth anyway... and enjoy.
 
Thanks guys

Thanks for the warm welcome.. I have been dreaming of owning a nice car and drooling over several that I have seen on here. My 1980 x is not running and need some tlc that I have no time to give.. So here I am joining the group with melo yelo.:)
