Two forces of nature came together this morning. I woke the motor from it's long winters nap and it started raining within minutes
.....I'm settin' here so you know who won that battle.
The car is ready.....cept for an alignment. I would like to find sumthin' to cap the doors....an 'L' shaped plastic with a nice radius on the inside would be swell as hell.
Snapped a couple pics.

Make damn sure your application for the Parade is in at the opening of registration. They had to turn a bunch (500ish) of folks away from Hershey. I'm told there are enough "principals" of other regions to fill it up should they want to make the trek. Hopefully we're too far out in the boonies for the Right coasters.

Break out the primer! You could use duct tape to hold the top on.
Looks great!

The rest is pretty much standard fare....cept maybe for this.
This came out pretty well considering I'm a klutz.
