Not here, I am kinda in a weird situation. I PLANNED on retiring this November, so my wife and I decided to buy a house back in our hometown of Lincoln, Nebraska. But, behold the Navy and their infinate wisdom, they decided to advance me in rank.
So now, in order to see the retirement pay for my current rank, I have to do two more years frm this month. I am planning on staying in Florida for about another year, then moving out to California (if things go right), where I can make some bank and get that Indy repainted, the right way, before I retire.
But in the meantime, to answer your question, Tiff, I do have a car cover. And, like I was so religious about it at the piers in San Diego, come rain squalls or hurricanes, she gets covered in Florida as well.
She was spoiled in Cali. I would cover her while parked on the pier working on the ship, then drive home into the garage.

More work done today to restore the car from the sun beaten state of disarray. Headliner:


and the Luggage Tray:


I will pick up the deluxe GM sunvisors on Tuesday. They are being redone in the same material as the headliner. (No brainer.)

No Tiff, if Ivan comes, I am heading north to Wheeling, WV, so YOU need to make room.
It almost appears that you, Chris and I are the only ones alive in this section. Oh well, consider it our own little chat room.

Don't get inundated by the river!

Oh yeah right...you know Corey would chase us out of the garage! I'd take his spot on the street and all hell would break loose.
