It's been a long winter, and even though it's now April, it's still not quite over. Still, was over 50 today so I went out to the shop to see if Molly would fire up. Took a little coaxing, but ultimately off we went. drove into town, aired up the tires, and decided to head up to the snow gate on one of the local passes. Top down, hat and gloves on, was a nice ride to blow out the cobwebs. Hoping to get an oil change and basic service done later in the week and we'll be ready for the driving season if it ever stops snowing.

So nice, I bought it twice. 🤪

You and JP are the ones responsible for it after all, and I thank you both. JP found the listing, and you graciously looked it over for me. All way back in March of 2011. Boy does time fly. Just today I replaced the battery I bought for the car shortly after I brought it home. Funny that it's time to redo some of my own work.

A little blast from the past, going back 12 years now.

It's certainly safe for now. Although I love my Morris Minor, the B is just so much fun to drive hard.
