Well, all my lamenting, planning, thinking and discussions about Project Clubby Estate are dead.

I phoned the current owner on Tuesday to find out if I could collect the car on Saturday.

The response?

“Sorry mate, it’s been scrapped.”

To say I was absolutely bloody fuming was an understatement. Yes, ok it’s taken me far too long to actually collect the car. A number of reasons for this, mostly surrounding a certain individual borrowing my garage to do work for people. Not having a transporter to get the car home didn’t help either.

But scrapping it? Come on, even this toss-pot knew how much the estate was worth.

I was speaking to a “friend” yesterday. He informed me that the car hasn’t actually been scrapped but has been promised as part payment to the guy that’s doing the work on the owner’s Mini van. Now, I know that the person that WAS doing the van is the same guy that was borrowing my garage.

If I find out that he has shit on me and the car has been promised to him instead then I am going to go mental.

If the owner has sold or given the car to someone else then no problem.

Suffice to say, I no longer have Project Clubby.

Gutted.
