A house on a main cross-street about 1-1/2 blocks from us was offered for sale earlier this summer. About two weeks ago my wife and I noticed that it appeared new owners had moved in, but there were so many tools and pieces of equipment located around the periphery of the garage that I wasn't sure. Would someone move with all this?
Tonight I drove past and the garage door was open. Holy crap, I think there is an OG9-3 in there! Sitting triumphantly dead center in a two car garage while two much newer vehicles were sharing the driveway.
When I re-entered the neighborhood 20 minutes later I drove slowly past to verify what I thought I saw. sure enough. An OG9-3 three door, painted dark blue metallic and as shiny as the day it left Trollhattan was in the garage.
If not for the Dark Blue color I would guess it might be a Viggen since the owner is treating it like a collectible, but dark blue was not a factory Viggen color. Might be a "Viggenized" SE model in Midnight Blue. Time to introduce myself to the new neighbor.
