Ken:
Thanks for the response and support. I agree with what you are saying. I
guess what disappoints me most is that nobody from the association
complained to me directly. The neighbors around me say the car doesn't
bother them. I would be happy to talk to the association about compromises.
To me parking the Spit in the backyard instead of the driveway would look
even worse, but I would do it if that made them happy.
If I'm forced to build a garage, it'll be a long time before I ever have the
money to put in a restoration.
Thanks again,
Larry Griffin
