Me

I miss having my old car on the road..

It needs some work. Mostly cosmetic - window, t-tops, interior..

But, it need something fixed with the wheel now, too. =/

Am hoping to have it back on the road soon.

This car was given to me when I was 16..

Not too long after my Dad passed away..

He asked, before passing, that my brothers be sure to get my car road-ready.

At the time, my car was an 80 Trans Am - and it needed a lot of work.

So.. They decided to surprise me with an 80 Corvette, instead.

Sadly, I didn't take care of the car like I should have.

I was a wild teenager, and didn't baby the poor car like I should have. lol
