I thought I should add this I just posted on another thread.

Well in my area, 30 mile north of NYC, there is a car show every wednesday night at 5:00 at Bear Mt. State Park, New York. Lots of fun and cars, all welcome. $5.00 to show or $5.00 to park, you pick Food, prizes, beer Historic cabins or lodge to rent over looking lake if needed. From March to November. Usually about 4 or 5 SL's. But check the weather first, it really influances the outcome of the show. But nice days, over 500 cars 400 bikes.

The pic below is of the back road at the top of Bear Mt.

Dug her out of the NY ice this morning and....she started on the first turn of the key. Went for a nice 25 mile cruz. Passed all those nasty audi's, bmw and vw's that litter the roads. People were even waving. I felt great. It seemed that everyone new that I was on my first cruz this year. Got home and took some, pre- interior instalation, pics so here they are.

Dropped her off, the guy has a nice one bay shop at his house. Now to wait till he finishes the boat he's working on. But at lease I'm in line. I was planing to dig her out and start her up the first of April anyways.

Here is the address and #'s of the guy that made the seats;
German Auto Tops, INC.
5547 Satsuma Ave.
