Re: My Tribute to Raul's 1967.5 SPL
We had a shakedown run on Sunday after bikermike R&R'd the rear wheel cylinder on the white car. The new look from the Libras/Azenis tires gives the car a bulldog stance and changes the overall demeanor. I dig it:

Rolling:

Raul had this cool magnet on the dash with Mr. K on it from the "Dogs Love Trucks" ad campaign....after 10 years it reappeared!!!

Some nostalgic side-by-side shots like we did in 2002:

Today I helped Raul pull the white car out of storage. I miss this roadster. Lucky to have covered storage for it as it still looks great. It has some fuel delivery stuff to sort so it will be back on the road soon.
