On Christmas day too.
Don't knock a man down today. Perfect is one thing. Restoration at any level is another, John. Damn....

Not at this time. It only takes about 10 minutes to take the trim and clips off. I'll look into doing that in the spring or summer. Thanks for the compliment. That "95' has been another hobby of mine since "96" when I bought it.Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

A blustery winter's day in 1967 with a westbound train heading to Chicago as it passes the Queen City station in Cumberland, MD. Notice the Union Rescue Mission next-door to the Queen City Tavern, get on the wagon and fall off the wagon without getting too cold.

Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap with 318 curves in 11 miles: America’s number one motorcycle and sports car road.

https://tailofthedragon.com/
Designated US 129, the road is bordered by the Great Smoky Mountains and the Cherokee National Forest with no intersecting roads or driveways to hamper your travel. It is considered “the destination” for thousands of motorcycle and sports car fans throughout the spring, summer, and fall. Can you brave it? It’s best to be cautious as the turns are tight, but the Tail of the Dragon is guaranteed to be the ride of your life.
Drove it in 2007 in my MINI Cooper S. Picture of the poster I got there. There's a national event each year called "MINI's on the Dragon." It's a national event, when I went there was 350 or so MINI's there. A lot of sports car clubs go there each year.
A guy on a motorcycle ran off the side riding with his dad and died while we were there.

EDIT: full disclosure, I'm thinking of a real Honda Civic when I wrote the above. You know...

I missed a pr. on Craig's list or Facebook marketplace. about a year or less ago. It had just been posted 2 hrs. (I think) before I saw the ad for very little money $125 to $250 max I think.
I responded I wanted to buy them. They responded, sorry, they're sold.
I think I posted on here about that miss. I was that (-) close!
