Couple of more shows and one Concours judging and then she gets driven to
events.  I want all the bugs to surface and get worked out before lots of
miles are put on her.  Iris's destiny is not to be a trailer queen you can
rest assured of that although she will be kept original or as close to what
I can get her.  I think a driver is in the works.  One that falls on the
exact extreme opposite of Iris.  Some billet, nice machine made one off
parts, a little carbon fiber, datsun 5 speed, and some really trick paint
done over impeccable bodywork.
