Stays in garage. Do try and drive it when weather permits. It's a 3rd car, so not needed. Hasn't seen rain in over 8 years.
'89TII-Just got it back from KD (engine/trans)-Itchy to put miles on it. Forecast beautiful weather this weekend. Hopefully will put many miles on it.

Drive it only when there's no snow. Apexi N1, RB header, Ground Control or Tien coil overs, and maybe some seats.

Get my newly acquired TII built up. Pineapple engine, turbo, etc... yada, yada. Bought it to keep me busy between school and work. All the fun I need is in the garage. Should keep me busy till spring. Hopefully I'll have her going in April or May.

Can't wait, atleast I've got ol' trusty, '86 N/A!
