    Perfect classic

    Most excellent! A distance trek in a V8 P6 is top drawer. Have enjoyed a few myself and always like hearing the stories of others.

    A realistic approach of classic car restoration cost

    Oh yes!! Can well relate…! $8k for engine rebuild…$5k for leather interior..$5k for respray and then the brakes,suspension, 4 bbl carb and manifold. What are we? Over $20k now? Couldn’t sell it for anything near what I have in it, but is it worth it? To me yes…!

    got your vaccine? what happened??

    Happy to report the cooling system of my ‘70 NADA 3500s is working well. Drove her to receive 2nd Moderna. Found myself at end of mile+ line of cars. Moving just fast enough it wasn’t worth turning the car off. Sat idling for over an hour. Needle reached high in the green, but burbled right...
