Dude,

You've got two back up vechicles.

I totally agree with the guy who said It's no fun if it's not reliable. Just like a woman... LOL

I was in exactly the same situation when I had an old '63 Ghia convert.
It ran great and no one but me touched her under the hood or anywhere else. That's where I learned that reliability came from my knowledge of her and keeping her regularly maintained. This was key to driving her like there's no tomorrow all over Cali/Nv. And not all that gently sometimes. =-)

My other vechicles at the time: a Toy 4X4, a lowered '65 Chevelle, and 2 motorcycles, all collected dust for a few years.

Heck, I think I dropped the insurance on everything but the Ghia and the Toy in the off seasons.

She scared me once when an alt relay got stuck, but one whack with a screwdriver and was going again. I don't think I even replaced that relay after that and it continued to go for another 2 years.

Sometimes it takes time/$ to get a ride up to "reliable" specs and some shake down cruises. Just invite a friend with a AAAplus card or get your own like me and go for it!
