    I need to hit the lottery. Today I was looking up some new brake kit (JCW GP2 )front and rear for 4grand. Then some new tires (my have about 500 miles) another 1k. Being retired I think I have to much time on my hands and not enough money. Oh well.

    Wowzer !! That’s a pretty hefty sum but well worth it as Checkers always looks amazing.

    It's hard to believe but I received my center caps today. That was a lot faster then I thought.

    If it snows tonight you have me to blame. Took the snow shoes off of Skooby & installed the summer play shoes. Now Babs can take the turns so much faster. :Stig:

    Hard to believe Checkers needs much of anything for improvement as sharp as it is now.

    I went out and started up the MINI and backed it out of the garage....
    Grabbed my sweetheart and took a back road, two hour trip, out in the country, for an ice cream sundae.....
    Tom's Ice Cream Bowl served up their first scoop in 1948... Small town USA...
    The weather was great, and the traffic was virtually non-existent...
    Time spent with my wife on this small adventure... priceless...
    Left with a pound of warm salted cashews for the drive home....

    I have a question for you guys. Have you had a problem with venders not coming through with there services. I use to be able to count on them to furnish good produce., but lately that not so. The decals I got were not really even close and some chrome work I had last year I'll have to have it redone.

    It’s been hit or miss with me. I ordered hat from speed gear and they never bothered to tell me it was back ordered.

    I might have jumped to my conclusions to soon. I took my strut brace back to be redone and he said they would redo it not no charge. Hooray.
