Today for the first time I drove my 1975 GT clone with the top off ! Car has been a project since December of 2006. I got her running in February of this year. She really sounds sweet with those Weber carbs barking and those headers feeding that M&K 2 in 2 out muffler. The wind in the hair felt great I can't wait to get her on the highway with the top off. It's the first time I've been in a car since high school with a top down experience (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . It was a hot day in Florida today but having the top off felt really good. I know this is old news to most of you but for me it was a first !

You guys that don't live here in Florida, do not understand that the definition of Rain here is different.
1st of Rainstorms are easily monsoons, they will gush out water from 1 to 3 inches an hour. I have had recorded rainfall of over 12 inches in one day. You could drive you 914 @ 100MPH ( if it didn't hydro-plane off the road like a ground-based frisbee) and be soaked in no time at all. 2nd, Drivers Freak out during storms. Some people pull off the road, others will drive 40 in the FastLane - Quite a sight when you trying to 70. I like driving in the rain ( racing too), but it is a supreme challenge here. T.C. |
