Yes, it was a little cold today. Got home after the three hour drive from Pebbles through Arlington, Granite Falls and Sultan. I checked the temperature of my fingers and they were all around 55F. with gloves and the heater on full. Maybe I should put the top up next time. :D

Thanks for the education David and Ted

12 volt blanket. It's warm. : :)

Took the roadster (and Z) out to the Industry Hills toy drive put on by purist auto group. Such a cool event with some amazing cars.

Hmm, the Beat Museum, Jack Kerouac and Neal Cassidy, I believe. Cool.

Really glad you went. I was supposed to go, but have been on a road trip and could not make it..

Thanks. I'm real happy with it. When he was buffing it he found a few imperfections and wants it back after the holidays. We're going to pull off the trim and color sand it, then add some more layers of clear on it. That's my buddy in the picture that did the body and paint work.

Went back for the second car, and the rest of the parts. Not going to lie, I think the truck may very well have been overloaded.. But that helped with the snow traction, so...

You must have 5 U20 spares in the bed to make it squat like that.
