The other thing is that most ragtops look like crap with the roof up. I can't think of any that I like with the roof up

Hey all... as drew said earlier, the photoshoot went well... it seems like every time we stopped to take pics, we had like 20the minutes of a bull session before and after all of the photos were taken... that's the way it should be.

I posted most of the pics taken by me and my buddy with my camera in the sights and sounds area...

hey all. its not raining here yet, but it is cold and cloudy. mondays and tuesdays are my weekends, so i slept in today. i dusted off the Crosley and put on a record for the first time in months. had to play 'Rainy Days and Mondays' by The Carpenters.

iv been using my heat for the past week and a half. mornings and nights have been getting colder and colder. i was really impressed with the heat in my car. driving a Ford for song long, im not used to heat that works instantly. when i drove the Explorer, it would take a couple miles to get warm (even when it was new) when it finally got hot, it would get cold when sitting still at a redlight or drivethru

anyways. hope everyone has a safe day

little jealous

I'm trying to post on the daily thread a little more often so you may hear the same thing over and over for days to come . . . Anyways, not much going on in nebraska--it's actually kinda nice to have good weather while everyone else is stuck in rain J/k
Got the taz shirt this weekend and already have it signed and ready to go for some pictures. (gotta get my car spotless for the wedding and it'll be PHOTO'S GALORE!!)

--also, I'd have to say the vette is the only one i like with the rag top . . all 2 feet of it lol

T tops offer more security then a convertible too. On a daily driver I'd want the Ttops

Evening guys. i'm headed off to grab food then go to work. I have my pics up on photobucket and I'll try and post them in the morning after work if I'm not too tired and my back isn't hurting too bad. Gonna try some heat therapy before i start work too. Maybe that'll help.
