hi,
i'm damien from Belgium. I was in touch these last
weeks with Thomas Stingl from the German Corvair Club.
I'm about to buy his 62 Greenbrier (in fact we have a
rendez vous this sunday) but his email & website don't
work anymore! i don't have his private adress. i know
it's delicate to give infos by email, but if somebody
knows him, could you please ask him to contact me? my
mobile number is +32 495 65 41 07
thank you very much! i don't want to miss this chance
to find a Greenbrier in europe.
Best
Damien
