I've had times when I'll walk into an antique shop and immediately I hear the little voice calling my name. Joe ..... Joe .... I'm here don't leave without me. At that point I'm worse than a golden retriever searching out a bird. I won't leave till I find what's calling to me.

You did good spotting that treasure way up high. I'll echo all the others, I'd love to see pics: before and after, when you can do them.

Geeze, what a lucky day you had! To find a FW anywhere reasonably priced is rare now a days - but, to get a free arm! Unbelieveable! Congratulations!

Seriously your lucky day - And the 222 is so lucky to have found such a nice caring new home!

she needs a picture and a name....like high flyer or hidden treasure......I am being silly I still call mine 301A and 1630 it is like an R2D2 & C3P0 thing.


always on the lookout for a 222 the only I have seen were at 'Road To California' and the price tag was sorta the year built times two........and they were repainted candy apple red.

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only nut that hears those little voices....I have stopped my car on a hunch that the shop had what I was looking for.....and that was not the reason for the trip. LOL
