Michael,

Good to hear from you.  You may be right.  And, I may drive it some more
this year.  But, there is no way I'm going to drive it in snow and salt. 
In one year it could end up looking like one of yours when you first found
it.

I was so psyched from the great trip yesterday, that this morning I finally
got around to installing my new driver's side floor.  It went well.

Who's a wuss?

Sumner
