Wooooooooooooo Hoooooooooooooooooo
 
BTW stopped at the grocery store, was standing in line and looked out - no car. You know you have a little car when you are parked between a Cavalier and a Kia Sephia and you can't see your own car.
 
:lol:

I lost sight of the Alfa a few days ago like that.

...where'd I park that thing???...
 
Way back when I had a running car, I parked next to a Cadillac once. I knew the Tunebug was small, but really!

Glad to hear you're out there driving.

I've lost my car many times. Now I park closer to the end of the space rather than the front. Started doing that after I was walking to the spit and watched a lady try to pull into my slot as she was talking on the phone.
 
BTW it ran as solid as a rock with the rebuilt carb, a few tuning issues but that's easy.

Geez tell me about it I was parked ina small sitting in the BE just getting ready to back out when a Chevy blazer appeared in the mirror try to share pavment with me.
I parkway out away from everbody now scared the heck out of me..
 
It's simple really.....just go to your local bike shop and get one of those 7 ft flag deals with the blaze orange flags and mount to the rear bumper! No more lost or unseen cars! And what a conversation starter! LoL :smile: Ok, ok...j/k!
 
Ha, the only place I will park is the handicap spots. They are very wide with good visability. There are so many here there are always some open. But then I almost never park Miss Agatha anywhere but her garage.
 
Took her to church this morning - parked in the Minister's driveway.
 
I remember those flags! I was a recipent of a nice ticket back when for not having one on my El Tigre and speeding .

Ms. Triss has risen! She has risen indeed!

You are a twisted man! I like that.

took her out for a spin tonight - had to go do some banking before tomorrow so took the long way. She ran like a trooper, except that when I turn on my signals my headlights turn off, just low beam and 2/3 of the time just a left had turn. When this came up earlier, (Kellysguy was having similar issues) the suggestion was made that it might be a ground issue. I added two grounds off the signal lights, so, tonight will be checking and rechecking my schematic. Suggestions welcome.

And, Morris I already know, Ms Triss might be risen but is not yet the light of the world :crazyeyes: (sacrilege, back in my day they sent people to h*ll for less than that, what is this world coming to. :whistle: :devilgrin: )
 
JP, you have a get out of lake-of-fire free card. And may fate was sealed long before this latest bit of sacrilege, so I figure it's all a wash. :wink:

Trust me, I traded that card years ago. I think it was for a mess of potage (obscure Bible reference)

Come to think of it I am both the son and the father of Jacob
 
Progress. Tonight, lubed front end, filled shocks (one was mostly fine and the other needed a fair bit of oil) Tightened up front end. Note to self and others, when you've had it apart, get underneath and tighten from time to time, it's amazing what worries itself loose over even a years driving.

More to come
