Well some people just don't learn, up late again last night. Car stuff this time, a friend dropped by with his new 1978 Lincoln Town Coupe with ultra rare fixed glass moonroof. I have only seen one of these cars in person before. Resplendent in metallic grey with unmarked grey velour, gorgeous.
I had a chance to show off the 59 Cadillac convertible and the 1971 Stutz Blackhawk, oh it kills me to have to think about ever having to sell one of these beautiful cars....sigh.
We took the 59 out for a quick cruise, top down, lovely warm night, full moon, running along Lakeshore Road with the light from Niagara Falls in the distance and the moon reflecting brightly on the water it could have been the Malecon in old Havana or the Corniche in Monaco. (I have actually driven along one of these roads in real life!)
Yes, I changed the oil and washed the dust of the 59 on the weekend, she is running well and looks like a million bucks IMHO. Last year for the canister style oil filter by the way.
Stopped off at my mother's house to show the 72 Lincoln Mark IV.
Then I had a turn being chauffeured in the Town Coupe, which I really enjoyed. Compared to last night's Cadillac and Lincoln fest it is sad to contemplate the sorry state of automotive design today.
Corvette to work this morning another glorious day, took some roads I don't normally use and was rewarded with some great scenery, oh I had seen it before but just not from that perspective.

Ok I will try and preserve this automotive high throughout my work day.
