    Winter? Oh yeah, that's when it dips down into the 50's at night. If I did this right this was my daily driver for a few years. Still have it. I drive it on the weekends when I don't drive the Maverick or '63 Ranchero.

    This Photo was taked in March Last year in Del Mar at Goodguys. This year I may drive the Maverick as they raised the entry year to I think '72. It was cool 70's during the day. On the way to Bakersfeild last October for the Hotrod Reunion I had a steel belt let go and it beat the drivers side rear fender to death. Just found a perfect fender in Canada. That will be the project for this Saturday.

    Oh yeah, it rains here in the winter too!

    this is my snowmobile, it has seen much better days, i have resurected it twice in the past 2 years (accedents caused by having the wrong tires on it). with the right tires on it this thing goes everywhere in the snow.. it was such a sweet car when i bought it..

    hahaha I don't think I have ever or will ever hear those words in my life. I'm not knocking the granada but it's just not something you usually hear complimented. Haha only on a Maverick board.
