    Driven on 11/27/2013 - evening

    Drove to Trader Joe's in Ballard (a neighborhood in Seattle) to pick up some last minute items for Thanksgiving, stopped by Evo on the way back home, saw a photo-op, took it!

    Anyone farther North or West in the U.S. drive their Dino on 11/27/2013?

    These cars are meant to be driven (and I don't mean just around your block or down your driveway). So, why not post a photo when you do too?!?!

    You've got a camera or cell phone, right? Take a photo! Or, at least next time.

    I have just returned from getting the 12 month rego check for my dino,we often here about dinos that dont get driven all that much which is a shame it ran beautifully and I had a great drive.But it seems that I am one of those none drivers,to my dismay my mechanic told me that since the last rego check 12 months ago the dino had travelled a mere 29 miles which puts me in the I like to look at it but dont drive it much category.My work commitments have kept me very busy this last year (bla bla bla)and look the same for the future so maybe its time I should think about parting with my toy that Ive had for 24 yrs and let some other dino nut use it for what it was built for,to enjoy. Well the dino has cooled down so I better go and tuck her/him in until this time next year,I hope not.

    Tell us a little about the car. It wont be had to find a new home for it. Gt or GTS.? Color? Mileage? Aussie car? Pics? That said you might regret selling it when your time eventually does free up .

    That's a very fine set of wheels. Have you restored it ?
    My car is also a Lowes delivery. Very special cars and rare as chicken lips.

    Unfortunately, there is a foot of snow on the ground here in Colorado. Thus, here is my Dino...tucked away for the time being. I will live vicariously through the group.
