    So an old friend rang in this morning said he's seen a blue 308, really heavily damaged

    My 22641 is back in Washington state, as seen recently on BaT..
    I know there was a nice blue GTB based up in the Woodlands. and I was also recalling Mark at Sphere buying a blue/tan 1978.

    Anyone claim the incident?
    He saw it rolling this morning, Monday, close by my house, in the Garden Oaks/Ella Blvd./North Loop area.

    Well it's in the forefront of my mind driving mine "Don't wreck it"..

    He recounted the windshield knocked out, both doors sprung ajar and even some signs of the engine weight shifting forward...sounded mangled pretty well up.

    Buckle up these days.

    This isn't true, Michael was selling a Euro Blue Dino 308 when they shared a space, but that WAS sold locally....hope it isn't that one.

    I totaled my last one right by there. Was on 20th and Shepard. A lady was pulling into Mellow Mushroom and pulled right in front of me.

    Two different cars, I know Mark found a 1978, back when they were working on one of my cars.
    He had inquired about me selling 22641, which was older, NON CAT.

    I DO recall that really nice blue one in M. Brandon inventory recently, I certainly hope it wasn't that one. Sad to hear whoever's it was, sounded like a really hard crash..

    I could not get an answer at M. Brandon today but closed Mondays perhaps..

    Years back there was a ragged out blue 308 seen in the DFW area. That one may have migrated south.

    I did think of that, an older wreck just being transported, but when it said "Windshield knocked out" like to was still laying across the hood, I think it recently happened.

    I se M. Brandon, and a lot of the Alara Garage cars around, as they drive TC Jester to test, and use the local Gas Station for inspections.
    The car in Woodlands is very nice and has been at Franco's parties...
