Default ITS HOME!!!

I just drove 20miles in the rain with no windshield to get this beast home!! It was great.. Cold but great.

The windshield guys showed up at the shop with what looked like a 68 windshield and told me that they would be back on monday..
So I took the car anyway.. The rain was stinging like hell at 45mph.. so.
I stopped at a buds house and got a full face motorcycle helmet and a jacket and took off. I took all back roads accross San Diego, no freeway. Stopped and got some gas.. Waved at a few people, got a few heads to turn, and some teenagers screaming at me from the side of the road, so I waved a little more straight out of where the window should have been.. It was fun.

I just missed driving this thing soo much.. Now i get to start with wiring.

Time for a beer.

I thought I was "Car Crazy" because I drive with out heat. In the rain with no windshield tops me by a mile.

The Hot Wheels Logo looks kinda cool.

I'm sure that was very illegal!
