Took the '74 out today in PA. It was about 70 degrees here in York.
I didn't mind at all taking the car cover off and taking the door protectors off. Even my son was enjoying the sweet smell of C3 exhaust.

I took the 73 out yesterday and today to strech her legs after a 2 month hibernation, and used up almost a full tank of gas. Each daughter got a ride and even the wife took about a 45 minute ride with the top down Next week we'll be shoveling snow.

I live in Champaign, IL, and the weather here was about 65 degrees with periods of sunshine. This is unbelievable for January!
