Default The young man with the old Bristol

Janne, a few of us have tried to make some sense of this, and the other conflict is between the new owner and his mother. He wants to fix the car up and change things out, like the transmission. She wants him to keep it original,and my guess would be hopes that he would sell it for a good price to someone who wants one to restore. We all told him that any alternations will decrease the value of the car, regardless of the poor condition it is now in. I too, admir enthusiasm, but youth and common sense or not mutually exclusive.
