Spring Fevor !
#1
The weather up here in Mich Upper Penninsula has been so very mild and warm , here we are in the middle of our normaly coldest month nomal temps are below 0 at nite and just above durning the day. and the temps have been in the hi 20"s at nite and as warm as 40+ durning the day and lots of the Sun shine we so crave this time of yr.
It's all I can do to keep myself from going stir carzy , I drove to town yesterday and not a lick of snow on the highway , all i could think of was going home and taking out the Stang , I think I would have except my road still has plenty of snow on it yet and the car would be in the ditch for sure.
Anyhow , all I wanted to do is vent my frustion but then I should be very happy , this weather is very nice for us this time of yr.

The winter here in Virginia has been very mild too! Very few snowstorms and then just a dusting to an inch or two. Lot of very warm days.

I've managed to take my 73 Convertible out several times once I made sure any salt and sand had been washed off the roads by rain. I've taken the 04 Mach 1 out several times two. It's gone from an occassional driven status when I first bought it, then to a daily driver for a while, and now back to an occassional driver. I try to avoid all wet weather in order to keep it nice and clean under the hood and all the hard to detail areas.

It has been a mild winter here but they still like to salt the roads, probably April before I take the Mach 1 out. Any way it's up on stands now.I'm replacing control arms and the bushings on the strut rods and stabilizer bar. Just about ready to start putting it back together.

I'm with you.......... The weather here in Nebraska has been pretty mild too. I want to drive my stang, but my problem is I live in the country and my roads are really muddy and soft. My daily driver is covered in mud and I sure don't want my stang covered in mud. So I will just have to wait............ I'm suffering the cabin fever pretty bad!!!!!!!!!!!
