    I know a couple fab shops in the region. But you might want to be careful. Plowing that much snow in such a low car, and soon the real snow plows might not even see you, then bye bye 348.

    Yep.

    Sign checks for the winter repair work on our cars at the shop.

    Mine just finished getting it's suspension and ignition system overhauled. Now we're gonna make that damn passenger door work right if it kills us, er the mechanic.

    Also going to iron out some other little pesky problems before the March 15 return date. Getting the wheels refinished and going to get a nice set of XWX radials for it's refurbished wheels.

    NICE! Did you sell the other suspension things that you had?

    Should we have a party for the homecoming of the Dino.

    Homecoming party will be at WCU for Brandon's gig.

    And, re-furbished all but the shocks and bushings, so, no parts to sell.

    Two shocks were really beat, leaking, other two were ratty, so they met Mr Trash Can.

    Gah! What a gyp. The NWS told us 8-12 inches. I put the Alfa in the storage shed, the EVO in the garage; dredged out my Alaska days long johns and go out to shovel the drive ...

    ... and there's only an inch and a half out there. I wasn't sure whether to use a shovel or just a broom.

    And the worst part is that these local "lost boys" are still going to be sliding around in panic on this token snowfall. What a waste of a perfectly good rallye car. ;)

    (Okay, arguably it's even more important to have all that capability when everyone else is an unguided missle.)

    Take our snow! I would guess we had about 8 or 9 inches plus drifting.
