I couldn’t resist a drive today, so warm. Windy, sure, but the forecasters were saying not really gusty until late afternoon so I just had to get out there. Left top up, but crosswinds kept blowing my cap off.
If you don’t mind a 3 minute YouTube video, and what must be the worst squeaking steering wheel of all time, here’s those 3 covered bridges… -

Oh, okay, I thought I had seen you say it was black. Looks just right in the pictures anyhow.
And knew you said mgmagic as the source, too, so that was where I thought I would get mine too.Got to think of that picture stuff here as another computer storage place, I quickly realized.Leaving it all up to you to decide. I used to teach my parents all… -

Sounds good, horse country can be better than cow country if what I’ve seen of central Tennessee is typical of elsewhere in the SE.
😀Going to be too gusty here, although warmer still, on Sunday after missing my chance today. Oh well. -

Yes, I understand. It’s a select>upload>select again>post picture sort of thing. At least I don’t think there’s a shortcut way to select and post a picture at once. Of course I could be wrong.
All is not lost for us anyhow, if you can still continue to choose your pictures and get them uploaded without actually posting them. And maybe you will… -

Got my old Yamaha cruiser out yesterday after buying a new full face helmet on a whim (really needed new one tho!). Just enough to top up gas tank and try helmet (Kabuto Kamui).
The car is another matter. I might just be sitting and watching a motocross today.If I don’t use top and side curtains I’m afraid the wind will undo my recovery from that… -

Definitely a good way to use this warm end to the year. Be careful in these little fiberglass cars because everyone else will no doubt try to be on the road in their SUV’s.
I had covered my car for the winter a few weeks ago and already had it out once since then. I’m used to December having sub-freezing temps, even here just south of… -

I like that metal trim on sides of the back, next to spare wheel. Looks so much like my car in red yet those kinds of things make all these cars a little different.

Got it this morning. Thanks Ed!
All the photos look very good, no low rez pics for sure. I can even see the rain drops on my car from that wet day.ÂI like the Feb picture showing rust and dust, some patina. I think maybe some missed wax or polish too!😉Pictures tend to make aging cars look so new compared to being seen in person… depending on… -

A good chance of that. I still look at what’s on craigslist every now and then and more often than not there’s another MG TD kit car (2 now), although they’re usually complete or just in need of repair rather than minus a chassis or engine. I would expect more to be around Illinois than here.

Thanks Dbanta!
plastic-tags was a place I was going to mention after seeing someone had installed those onto their dash until I saw they weren’t a regular item for sale, so I continued looking for mass produced label rings like those.Looks like a quantity discount if 10 sets of 5 were made, but since our dash switches or pull knobs vary a bit I… -

Easy, yep. I thought I had joined up there years ago but it didn’t find my email when I tried to have them send me a password reset.
Probably just as simple to quit or unsubscribe to their emails, which could be the only possible complaint if it isn’t easy to do that. Sure doesn’t matter to me in this case regardless. -
Bob replied to the topic 2016 Calendar in the forum General Discussion 9 years, 8 months ago
Guessing yes (about joining shutterfly 1st), apparently so anyway, and I was using the “share” link too.
I got in ahead of the Cyber Monday thing but was still sent an email saying sorry for the trouble, which obviously confused me and made me think something went wrong with my order. Good to hear a reason for that.LRH2015-12-01 13:21:24

Bob replied to the topic Dash switch labels in the forum General Discussion 9 years, 8 months ago
I tried looking for those things, expecting it might be fairly common. Only found out about custom-made labels, or very different types, no place seems to actually sell automotive dash switch ring-like labels. Not anything I could find anyway.
I added the decal labels this summer and it isn’t very good.Talk at a forum about roadsters, showing a… -

Rechecked to see if all is still okay, nothing wrong found.
Ed, again, I really think you should get rid the 2nd link in your post with the discount code so that nobody is editing the calendar by mistake. Can’t be sure that’s actually possible but it does show the calendar as a work in progress, so seems a possibility it could get changed for… -

Alright!! Done deal! I should get the calendar in about a week.

Ed, I’m ordering now via last link given. Still needed signing in again with my new account there, but shouldn’t be much trouble for anyone wanting to get it.
