Finally: SS Daytona
Hi All,

I've been reading this forum for years, but rarely post.

Today my incredibly generous parents presented me with a SS Daytona, as I'm about to graduate from my Law degree.

I've been pining after this one for a LONG time!

Looks like the vintage 5513 and the PAM390 are going to be a bit neglected for a while.
