Winter Driving Threads Continue!
It was 74 degrees today- my wife and Boatguy95 took our three cars on a long country drive with the kids!
It rained for about twenty minutes. You can see they didn't melt!

We have been getting breaks in the rain, but the roads are really torn up from the storms. I took the 67 out yesterday and came back early. Lots of washouts and BIG potholes everywhere. We went from a severe drought to severe flooding in a matter of months. It has gotten so bad that I started restoring the knockoffs on my 65, and that is a major PITA for sure. The theory is that someday I will get to drive the car again, but the forecast looks pretty grim for the next few weeks.

shes very photogenic, yes! Am I allowed to say so?
But like many- the photos hide the flaws. I'm ok with it- it was a great driver before the accident and so it is now. Better overall but not perfect.
And to Don- the photos were all just before the rain except the low shot. The black and white shows a wee wet on the asphalt but it had been an hour.
