Re: A nice weekend drive.
Yeah, the mountains and valleys were pretty. We tasted some nice wines and had a nice visit with a good mate.
I haven't had much of a chance to have a look at the Flo's condition yet, its been dismantled a bit, but there are plenty of parts. There is rust in one of the rails on the inner guard (a common spot) and a bit over the left back wheel, but thats all. The dash pad is toast and the original front seats are gone, but there are some others stacked in there.
Its very straight, never had a hit I reckon. So its restorable, but down the list a ways. But at least its safe, and if anyone needs one in the future, it will be here.
I did check the chassis number, being grey I wondered if it was close to Mary's. But no, its almost 1900 newer.
Did I mention the motor? It comes with a pretty good motor. Theres plenty of room under that little bonnet. So that would make a nice touring car, with a 5 speed. Hmmm....
