Foilage update....We live on the foothills of the Blueridge and the Colors are just starting to peak today. Its really beautiful. Mountain tops look like they still have plenty of color and the warm weather should extend it...long range forecast looks like sun and in the 70's...drop the tops, remove the glass,,,enjoy the fresh air...

Safe trip to all those coming, see you there...

Aw man... just when I thought there would be another '82 there. . .

What transducer broke that won't let you drive the car???

My '82 was acting flaky on the way to work (and home) yesterday (looks like a potential vacuum leak since the head lights just popped up randomly at 80 MPH and a light load on the engine and some "hesitation"... let off down to 75 and all was fine, headlights closed.) I'm taking it in for some normal maintenance (I'm lazy and busy, cut me some slack) and I'll ask them to see if they can find a leak... or if that's even it. Probably won't be doing 80 on the cruise anyway. . .

So it looks like it might be the '99 coupe after all. I'll know more tomorrow night. Although I would rather bring the '82.

I have to agree, We live up on the mountain overlooking your place and it looked like it was peaking today.

IVO,

Have you narrowed down the time you're pulling out yet? If you don't mind, since we're just up the road, we can meet you at your hacienda.

The cruise control transducer broke and disconnected my speedometer cable from the transmission. Errrrrr.......

See you there in the '99 coupe.
