So, how much have....

This is embarrassing Steve. I am just to the point where I have to gas up again for winter. It will be the first time hitting the pumps all summer so, maybe a 100 miles or so. But hey, no water spots or bird poop. I give you credit for driving these great cars as much as you do. When I die, I want my car trailered to the funeral (enclosed of course). :lol: Seriously, I do have to drive it more. Otherwise what is the point of all the work and owning it. :yesnod:

Put a 4 gear in it you will drive it more. :acme:

I havent done any long trips but I do drive them once a week or so.

With a 1 year old, pregnant wife, working ot, new house, and the auction car there was not much time to cruise. So I drive em to work down PCH 12 miles.
 
that's what I do. with working 21 turn, there's not much fun driving time.
 
Does pushing in and out of the garage count!! I'm still working on mine and trying to finish the restore. I am biting at the bit to get the runner on the road.

Not as many as I would like; the old 18-spline needs to be rebuilt and I have purposely reduced the amount of driving so as to not damage anything beyond repair...

I was gonna wait until I pulled it apart for paint...which I expected to be this past spring...so I may change my thoughts on this as the schedule has slid to the right since I've been pretending to be Steve McQueen in my new Blue Oval....:leave:

Looking at your avatar pic I see a hairline crack running the entire length of that hood... :basketcase:

:jester:
 
see...you're not on the road as much as you let on.... :lol:
 
I haven't put on as many miles as I would have since I bought the Scamp. Although, I still do manage the time to take her out for a 20 mile little run. :beep:

True...but it was still time spent not at home. Sometimes you just want to sit in your own chair to watch the boob tube or sleep in your own bed... :cents:
