NOTE FROM OWNER Thanks to the crew at Georgia Avenue Body Shop, they made my car beautiful. So beautiful I find myself afraid to drive it for fear I may scratch it. I now hope I can sell it to someone that will love and care for it as much as I do. The car needs to be blowing in the wind on the road. Casey
