Last night I was loading my truck full of old boxes from my winter home renos (which were mostly stored on top of my Midget-it did have a cover on it)- supposed to be warming up this week so I rolled Midge out from her winter birth at the back of garage, removed the car cover, checked vitals, installed battery & fired er' up (65psi Oil & 170 on temp, good to go) - Gotta love it, the sound of a 1275 purrrin away - Tonight off the dolly's & a wash in the drive, hopefully first drive of the season to follow :smile:

For those that have to store for the winter - it's time to get em' out, lets start Driving !! :driving:

Lets share our first fire up of the season stories.
