Yo guys,

I drove my 79 B all day Saturday in the great NW Sunshine, a gift I tell ya. I enjoyed the sun, took my girlfriend to the festival of trees and drove home later on - and the car like always, worked without fault.

Any of you driving your B this weekend?

Merry Christmas! Dan B)

too darn cold to drive without a top and I don't have one. with a high today of 40 and that was only for a few minutes, I did not want to drive the B or ride the bike.

Just got back from town to run errands. Took the Sprite. About 30 miles. Cheryl has a cold, so top up. Ran fine. Highs in the 40's today.
This weekend I fixed the front turn signal light using a new base connection from the parts GT. Found a stripped trans mount bolt. Changed the rear end oil to Redline. A bit quieter.

Last week I drove the BGT 3 days to work up to 200 mile days.

Looks like we finally have some rain coming in. A slight possibility of snow as well.

Last friday, I had the day off and drove my 78 B. Here the sun is shining and we have blue skies this time of the year. It was a great day.

Alright, Dan. I drove my '68 roadster on Saturday, down to Newberg and on up to Carlton and back. About an 80 mile round trip and the top was in the boot where it has been for the last two years. Outside temp was about 38 F but with heat pouring out of the vents I was actually quite comfortable.

Thank you Chris - I would have the nice I do - without the major influence, confidence, guidance and courage to do tasks, and get her to where she is today. Next up: Overdrive install and re-do my front/rear suspension. By next Spring, she's gonna be at her best yet! Hope your A continues to improve - very very nice A ya got there. Is the original color Black?

I know a guy here in Portland with the dual overhead Cam version, incredible car really. Without the A, the B would have never been.
