I just finished reading that article in CE,and enjoyed it. (nice license plate). Look forward to seeing the car at Carlisle this year. Are you going to have it parked over in the corral? Ken

Very nice looking 81 Lance,I too,have used that method to get my alloy wheels shined up. Ken

We lucked out on this one. CT is on the warm side so we are getting all rain,which we dont need more of.:( Ken

I know,it isnt officially Spring yet,especially here in the Northeast,but we recently had a deluge of heavy rain (more coming tonight and Saturday) which washed any salt residue of the main roads,and the snow is basically gone,for the time being. I got out of work early today,and took the...

I dont even think that 69 would get 147 k EVEN at Barrett Jackson,no matter how many cocktails the bidders had.:beer

Thanks for the nice compliment,looks like the twin to your great looking 81. The paint is original as well as the rest of the car. They really went all out on these first run clearcoat finishes,which were new in the industry at the time,and shows that the paint can stand the test of time...

I started my 81 yesterday,first time in a month,and let her run in the driveway for 30 minutes to get her good and warmed up,and to dissapate any fuel,oil and moisture in the exhaust. The stock L81 fired up as if I had just started it. Temp outside was 11 degrees. I could of just as easily...

DITTO, And lets hope for a early Spring. Ken
