When real Spring temperature comes with sunny day and no rain!
I took out once in last month just to get state inspection.
Next new car for me will be bought summer time because I hate standing out in the cold for inspection.

I always used to drive mine in the rain and even snow during the winter but this past winter its been on jack stands while I've been doing work to it. I think from here on out I might just garage it for the entire winter and only drive it on sunny (non-rainy) days. I mean I finally have the motor built like I want and its going on 9 years old now. I guess it's time to start babying it a little bit to preserve haha

I've owned my car since mile 1 and it's only seen the rain for about 10 seconds, literally. Just doesn't rain here, like ever. It's a city wide holiday when it does haha.

But I'm about to go out and cruise it for a few after being on jackstands for a few months. So happy.

It just, within the past 2 weeks, got decent enough out to drive and fix my R up for spring! Got my new parts put on and been cruisin around every non-rainy day since! And rollin with the windows down in 40 degree weather! A cruise in the R is not a cruise without the windows down and some metal blasting!
