Testing the COVID-19 waters...

I spent a good chunk of time de-modding & cleaning up the car in the past week or so. Hey - more free time on my hands these days.

Since the car will never be this neat & tidy again, I decided to test the used car market under lockdown. (I'd prefer a base model Mirage anyway.)

So I did a photoshoot on Sunday. Beauty shots! Here are a few.











Since I have zero actual need to sell it, my asking price is a little "aspirational", so we'll see what happens. I'm testing the theory that with Ontario car dealers currently closed, if anybody really needs a car, they're going to be shopping the private sales.
