Re: It's so sad this time of year

Re: It's so sad this time of year

Wanna see SAD?? To a great degree, it's self-inflicted. But, you gotta start somewhere, right? Right now, when I look at it while it sits in the same place this pic was made, everything that is necessary to have it run and drive is inside the garage. No engine. No transmission. No steering/interior, etc. The HVAC stuff is gone off of the firewall and it is awaiting a major bit of surgery to replace the firewall...starting with a cut of the windshield posts and across the floor of the cab....rocker to rocker.

I don't even park my corvette in the winter and I live in the rust belt, I would never consider parking a truck in the winter. Maybe if it was a trailer queen that only got rubbed with a diaper.

Colorado here. Mine never sees the garage and is driven all winter. Putting the studded snows on next week as we go over Wolf Creek pass to spend Christmas in Pagosa Springs.

Heck, we got to see snow at Wolf Creek Pass on July 5th, 1995! Got pix of the two youngest kids standing in it. Old man at Monte Vista said it was only the 2nd time in his (then) 85 years that he'd seen snow there in July.
