Average 3 thousand miles a year. Mostly tearing up county roads

Planning a 1500 mile trip to Portugal next year which will be around 3 weeks and 4 to 5 k miles in total if it works out. I have two other C3 owning mates that are trying to collect enough brownie points to join me and that would be fantastic if they can, if not I'll be going solo




Unlikely to be many more driving days left this year now
Wow, mannn!!
I love your garage!!!!!

I am in France, if you have any issue during your trip through France, contact me, I will try to help

I drive my 69 4spd manual L46 on weekends, as long as:
- i am not away
- it is dry
- I can have an assistant to help me put it back in my garage, which is quite (very-very) narrow

In nice weather, drive it to work and back. Garaged with battery off, sta-bil, and no car cover from November till April. Since I did a engine and tranny swap, it gets faster every day as it settles in.

Just drove mine all weekend Sometimes it's nice to remember that it's a car and it's made to be driven! Friday-Sunday I didn't even use my truck, just the vette and it was a blast!

As much as possible as long as there is no chance of rain which usually means once a week to work and trips to the hardware store on the weekends.
