1940plymouth Posted January 19, 2011 Report Posted January 19, 2011 As the heading says, we went for a ride, but only in the driveway. It was Cooper's first ride of the year. I wanted to listen to the engine, very quiet now with the new exhaust flange gasket, plus I wanted to take a photo of the two plugs closest to the firewall to show that water collects in there while she sits outside in the summer time. First real warm day we have had in almost three weeks, temp in the upper 20's Bob Quote

busycoupe Posted January 19, 2011 Report Posted January 19, 2011 The pictures look great Bob! It is warm here today also, in the mid thirties; however it is raining. Yesterday we had snow, rain, and ice. The streets are a mess. Still, you inspired me to go out to the garage to start the coupe and let it warm up. Let's hope that it is a short winter. Dave Quote
thrashingcows Posted January 19, 2011 Report Posted January 19, 2011 I really think you enjoy your car too much. Aren't they supposed to sit in the garage and never go out and be enjoyed..... I hope to enjoy my car as much as you do, one day. Quote
1940plymouth Posted January 19, 2011 Author Report Posted January 19, 2011 One more photo from today:) Dave, did you go out and start your car? Quote
busycoupe Posted January 19, 2011 Report Posted January 19, 2011 Yes, I have been trying to take it out every couple of weeks to keep it running. I didn't take it out today, but did run it up to temperature in the garage. It looks like that is the best I can do for a while. Snow is forecast again for friday. Quote
Niel Hoback Posted January 19, 2011 Report Posted January 19, 2011 Bob, am I going to have to make you a matching collar and tie? You could sit on the other fender, too. Quote
1940plymouth Posted January 19, 2011 Author Report Posted January 19, 2011 Niel, I laughed right out loud when I read your post, my wife got a good chucke out of it also. We will see what we can do the next nice day:) Quote
