Sorry, I find modern engine swaps revolting. Keep your G, R, or U series in your Roadster!

Just curious how many people are driving their roadsters out there and how many will still drive even if it's raining that weekend?

I get the feeling it is going to be a "top up" drive, but I will be going.

The weather reports are starting to look better and better!!

I think there is going to be a little wet in the morning on Friday, but Friday night and Saturday look to be clear!

it says clear saturday and sunday with only a 30% chance of rain friday. looks pretty good - they were predicting a 60% chance of rain all weekend in S.F. and though it looked bad, we only got 20 minutes of actual rain....

Either way I'm going. hopefully the roadster will stay dry. I just waxed it!

Waxed it? :shock: Great, now it'll definitely rain. :lol:

Oh, wait, maybe it'll only rain in the Bay Area. 8)

Hey Lou...I'm quite optimistic about the weather..I think it will turn out great!

Now, on the other hand, my 67 2000...I'm not too sure about. It has decided to start "precipitating" from the trans. Dan over at DGR is working on her and hopefully he can stop the leak. On the way over to his shop, it developed two additional leaks from under the dash that ended up on my suit pants legs. Great :(

So up I've been saying a little prayer to prevent any wet weather.. both at Solvang and from my car's petroleum internals...

I believe that's the undocumented internal anti-rust feature. :P
