It was about 66 today. Although I did drive the 6 today, it was only for a
moment. Spent most of the day making the 8 road worthy. Hopefully tomorrow
(forecast high 70) I'll be able to both put the 8's top down AND drive it
around.

Must be something about 71 TR6 owners, cause I went out driving late
this PM too. Mid forties in Denver and with the top down, tonneau cover
on and refurbished heater going like blazes. Had my earmuffs on and was
not cold at all...actually had to turn the fan down when I was in
traffic or I got too hot. Mostly wanted to drive the 6 on the last day
of the century, which I did yesterday and the first of this century.
Even got a little precip before I got it back in the barn but thought
who better to rust it a little than me out there enjoying the elements.
Hey Fred, I made it. I haven't had the top up since I got back from VTR
(buying that tonneau made it possible).
