    I recognize that car! Welcome to MA.
    I picked Huntley up from the body shop and she has beautiful new bonnet paint. It was hard going 10 whole days without driving her :biggrin5:

    This past weekend it was 97 and for the past few days it's been in the 60's......
    The TPM monitor wasn't happy, so I filled all the tires with air. Sticker calls for 38 psi cold, they all had 30 psi.....:mad: All is well now.....:D

    Todays ride started last Saturday when we followed other members of the biker club I'm a member of,to Breaks Interstate Park in Va. We found a Catholic church in Elkhorn Ky. that was a mission church & their food/clothe pantry was low on food. We stopped at the food pantry in our local church & were given a generous amount that added to our donation & filled the back seats & trunk(?) of "Spicy". Atfer a stop to retrieve a "cache" in Ky. near Elkhorn,(we're geocachers too) we delivered the food & bought a few items at a great price. From there we drove to Pikeville Ky.,to check out a T-Rex reverse trike @ McCoy Motorsports. The trip home was less fun since the route had less twisties but the rain had my bride of 42yrs.concerned I was still going too fast. A good 300mi. ride .

    I would not retaliate that is an invitation to bad karma. Glad to see the paint is intact. The PDR guys do wonderful work, a shame it is going to cost you. The real loser here is your coworker with no morals. A pox on them....
