Default How sweet it is

I also haven't touched mine since the end of October, but we had snow this morning and more coming later this week. Then I got called for 5 weeks of jury duty, so it could be a while yet.

I am glad everything was good on your start-up and drive Steve, I started mine 2 weeks ago awaiting for the snow to melt so I could take it for a spin, but with 12 more inches if snow Monday, it will be awhile yet! Hope you don't get what we got Tom.

My wife and I are both from upstate N.Y., so we know the weather. We have lived in Florida for fifteen years and now live in S.C. In the last couple of weeks I have put over two hundred miles on my '29 A. We both also, own and ride Harley Davidson motorcycles. Tomorrow (4/3) we are going to ride our bikes up to Charlotte, NC and attend the Auto Fair event at the Speedway. A lot of A stuff. I need a roadster windshield.
You folks should move south.....I like to rub it in.
