    Ready for driving season.

    I always seem to forget how awesome these cars are over the winter. The car has been on jackstands for a couple of months. Tonight while I was lowering the roadster back to the floor, some Dire Straits playing on the stereo, when the rear finally sat down I could feel some euphoria coming over me. As I moved to the front and let that down I felt like I just needed to go drive the car right now. These cars are awesome!

    The roadster started with immediately on the first crank after 3 months, Becky quickly informed me it was too late to be "playing" with car noises. So the roadster waits for tomorrow and the big first drive to work this year.

    I just finished my winter mods I thought I would share a picture. I added 15 anniverary sale chrome roll bars, SS polished louvers, and ceramic coated the sidepipes this year. All show mods, no go this winter
