I've made it!!! Today I'm the A of the day. We had an unusually snowy day Friday. So whats a fella to do? Load up the boys and go snow plowing in the A.
I know its not really that big a deal, but I'm quite proud to be the "A of the day"

Nice picture. Look like a fun outing.

Nice car. I especially like cars that still have the original trunk.

Thanks Neal
A trunk was what I wanted. Rumble seats look like a pain 99% of the time.

That's quite a set of rear tires!

Congratulations. Not going anywhere in Medford Oregon. Solid ice. Kids look like they're having fun...Heck yeah, an adventure.

How often does it snow in Redding?

Way to go to Tiny. Good thing it didn't have white walls.

They would blend in to the snow.

Great picture.

Usually one day a year, but it never sticks. It snowed all Friday night and Saturday morning and it stuck!!! Still frozen snow everywhere Monday morning!!

Thanks Mike. The boys and I even did some offroading and snow doughnut spinning in the field in the picture. If I knew how to post a video you would hear the kids giggling and saying WOW a bunch!!

Looks like you had fun! Nice looking car!! Is the body Lombard Blue or is it black?

It seems such a dark color its hard to tell sometimes. My 31 coupe is painted a much lighter shade closer to Washington blue but I'd like to correct that sometime and I really like the dark blue.

Cool beans!

Thanks everybody
Yes Aaron it's Lombard Blue or that's what I'm calling it. I don't know if it's the correct blue but it is really dark. In photos it hard to tell. In person it's a bit bluer. The black wheels help add to the illusion also.
