 I posted several years ago that my Daughter had moved far away from home.

Left front tire. This is the worst one. But it's not down to the cord... yet. 

That meant that her car was also a long way from home.

She now lives much closer, and visits us more often.

This is what happens when you don't keep an eye on the condition of the tires. They do have to be rotated on a set schedule.

 I started to work on the Riviera's driver's window.

The door pull is the sturdiest mounting part of the door panel.

Ventilation is pretty good with both windows down. Just like in the Old Days. Two at 65!

I was surprised when the window quit working during my Mendocino trip. It was cold that day near the coast, and the heater isn't working correctly at the moment.

 Kit Cars: The evergreen VW floor pan and it's brush with greatness. Part Two.


This is a Blower Bentley replica.
It's the only one that I've ever seen.

 Maybe you can't go home again,


Mendocino waits for my return.

But you can pass by the old neighborhood, drive through it, and reminisce.

This post is not the usual blah, blah, blah!
