    That's great!  Now that's just one more thing to scratch off of the to do list and one less headache.  Has the weather cleared up enough so you can think about getting out and tearing up the road?  Do you have to have seat belts up there in older cars?  We don't but I will be putting them in.  Like I stated before, I found a nice set of original seat belt floor brackets in  that 2dr. wagon I bought last year.

      I hope that we both manage to get our cars out sometime this year.   Jay

The law is the same here for seat belts, if they didn't come you don't have to have them, but I would feel a little safer with them on. We had another blast of snow here Monday night, Saturday everyone's out watering the driveway and wearing shorts, today their clearing snow and wearing gloves! HRD

That's the same way the law is here and that's how I feel about the seat belts.

     Would you believe that we actually got snow last night? 
     Here it is the middle of April.  We just got a little bit but the western part of the state got more.   This winter does just not want to go away.

What I've gone and done is on the drivers side front and back, I keep my winter tires on and then on the passenger side I put on my summers, which keeps my family safe for both summer and winter!

I heard he only rolls the windows down on one side too, the summer side I assume  :003:

I can't say yes or no to what Jim heard, but I only had time to wax the drivers side yesterday!

Good Morning Everyone
     So Donnie...Now I get it I think.  When we talked on the phone and you stated that you installed posi traction in your 57.  Is the real reason that when you drive on the border of winter and summer you will be certain that the car keeps moving?  Was that Jeff's idea? 
      You know Jeff.   He's the one that we don't hear from anymore.

I was at Jeff's this week to paint his house, and the boy is swamped with art work he has to get out for customers. He's gotta keep the money coming in for the painter.

 I know that Jeff has to do the  work when it comes in, but I would like to think that he is thrashing on his 57 and that you are just covering up for him.
