Default Thanks for all the comments

Yes, very true about the sun here. Catherine's already made up a dash cover and we are now sourcing some bearable seat covers ... definitely not those ones with Betty Boop We very nearly bought a '69 142 that was offered to us on the Gold Coast but before we could get to see it this gem came up. I love the 142 but just can't afford it unfortunately. Why didn't I buy an 1800 years ago?!! Was also offered a very clean 164 (metallic blue) just the other day but while my mouth was watering, I had to look the other way. Snoop drives so beautifully that I look forward to getting out in her every day. There's that wonderful clunk when you close those doors that just doesn't happen on these modern sardine cans. Might start looking for an Abba doll to hang from the mirror I'm running on a Premium 98 and while it's a bit pricier, I reckon it's worth it. Price is about $1.50 a Litre.
