Welcome to the madhouse!

Your car looks great on those 107 wheels - it's certainly worn all those miles well.

Hi and welcome - roadster, well done

What part of the US are you. Quite a few forum members form your side of the pond. If you're a dry state then roof motor may never be an issue. Here in the UK as soon as a drain gets blocked with dust washed off the roof or road crap the motor ends up sitting in water.

Crazy Harry, I am in Columbia Mo here in the states. The car suspect was garaged most of its life given the condition. I will also garage it and try to drive it only on nice days. Unless am out on a vac trip and get caught. After I get the temp sensor and shocks on I plan on a good wash and detail on it. If there is anyone in my area of the country and would like to get together I welcome it. Thanks all for the kind forum welcomes..!
