heartless Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 (edited) Dear Friends, we are gathered here today to mourn the passing of Brumhilda, the 1989 GL FWD 5 spd wagon that had served Heartless so well for nearly 10 years. She was purchased the summer of 2000 for the princly sum of $150, gave many years, and miles of reliable service, thru sunshine & rain, sleet, snow and ice....today, at 262,766 miles on the odo, she was taken to the scrap yard for recycling - or what was left of her, I should say - she will be missed. It is indeed a sad day to take a rusty but trusty old friend to the graveyard, but she did become an organ donor, passing many of her parts on to others so they might live on. On a brighter note, she did reward me by bringing me more $ as scrap than what I originally paid for her! On a related note - to those that I owe parts to, please pm me and let me know - I know there is someone who has actually paid me, but I cant remember who & for what, or if I got them sent out (Ben - working on repacking your stuff)... I have been battling some health issues all winter, and then computer issues on top of that. Going in for surgery tomorrow (3/17/10) but should be home in a day or two. for those that are so inclined - raise a beer in salute to another poor Subaru that has passed on, but lived a long and useful life! (i'm not allowed to today...) Edited March 16, 2010 by heartless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomRhere Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 :drunk: 3 Cheers to Brumhilda. May she live long and heartily in other Subes. Had to send a few off to the Great Beyond myself. Not a good feeling. Speaking of feelings... Hope things go good for you on the surgery. Speedy recovery and all that.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartless Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 thanks Tom. Cheers to you, too! longest I ever owned a car before Hildy was maybe two or three years - that ol Subaru was with me for darn near ten years! got pretty attached to the old girl.
