Unhappy My Old 440 on eBay...

For those who didn't know it, pictures are throughout the gallery, but can also be found here.

This is how she's ended up...

This is how she looked when i had her: (didn't get time to spray the bumper)





Please tell me she looked better when i had her...

Hi Matey.
Don't worry, you are right.
It looked a LOT better when you had it.
What on earth have they done to it?
What you did was tasteful, but they have really gone to town with the halfrauds catalogue by the looks of it!
Later bud,
Dan.
