A C5 user comeback from Italy!
« on: 23, September, 2010 - 21:13:59 »
Hi to everybody! I'm back in action!

I'll keep it short, I found my C5 in a garbage dump back in 2006 in Italy, restored and rolled again in the roads back in 2007.

I've been a forum user since 2006, I still remember Mark, one of the previous owner (really a nice guy) from whom I bought some spares and got some for free.. wow! (including some used rear tires).

Then after a forum crash/reset and given the few time I got for myself (and some health issue still going on..) I let the C5 and the forum away literally covering with dust :(

Until recently, I started feeling good again (sort of) and moreover ANOTHER Italian guy contacted me about his C5 received from a cousin.. so I decided to get everything back in shape :D

Some of you may remember this http://www.camp0s.com/Smart/c5/c5.php which documents my efforts back in 2006-2007 around my old-new C5.. well, really, remembering all this stuff now.. is discharging an electrical current through my spline.. wow, what an emotion was my first ride!! :D

So.. see you in the forum!!!

I was on the first of Marks c5alive runs (held in High Wycombe), along with Lee,Hank,Ray & Alan in December '06 but didn't join the forum until '07 which must have been around a similar time to Andy  :).

Ciao Giacomo ! 

Appena ho finito di sistemare il mio carretto, gli si potrebbe organizzare agli inglesi un bel raduno in Italia ?

Che so, magari si potrebbe chiamare: "The C5 Italian Job meeting" ... :D



hihihih ...  ;D
