My Hobby, My Passion, My Prize Possession

My trophy, my keepsake, my love. There's nothing like owning one. Or, perhaps, it owns me. Either way the relationship is amicable. Besides, how many cars have a museum dedicated in their honor?

Re: Leaking in the rain

The word "douche" came to mind, but that's probably not an appropriate answer.

Re: Corvette is French for........

I went from French to English and got "sloop of war" then I went from English to French and got "Bateau" or boat.

Water allways comes into play, maybe I should install a "bilge pump" ?

Fuir sous la pluie

Isn't this internet wonderful, found a translator.

I remember my 67 driver being stored outdoors prior to 79, and bailing out the floor on many occasions. Found out what the plugs in the jack compartment were for. Finally put holes in them. Remember all my gage lenses, fogging up with frost until the car got warm.

All restored now and in a garage, but not afraid to take it in the rain or snow. And it still leaks.

Que c'est ce.

Re: Corvette is French for........

Websters Dictionary describes the word Corvette as being a small boat. I wonder if there's a message there?
