@Libra, what model was your car?

Aleem1 (Aleem1) 2007-01-08 08:44:00 +0500 #27

Man I'd kill to own that early '60s VW micro bus or those late '50s Beetles... that W109 Merc is very nice too!

Where are these cars now? Burried under thousands of kilos of reconditioned Jap garbage in Shershah or lovingly restored and kept in some swanky house in some nice Karachi locale?

I'd go with the first, not the second, personally :(!

@Libra, I had no idea at the time I was taking the picture of the picture that you are also in present in that, if I knew that I would have taken away the original pic along with its frame and paid the compensation to housekeepers.

Anyway, if you are serious, can you mark yourself/your car on the picture? thanks.
