Well,
some pics from Christmas day cruisin in Santa Cruz and serpentine hill roads around...
License plate needs some explanation.... Toy moved back to California from Finland around mid October. Sailed for 6 weeks with furniture container ending up into San Jose. Hmm, no snowy christmas time like in Finland but lots of driving season left here in down south (coming from latitude 60 deg, equals to Anchorage
) so we had to invent some new ways to enjoy the new Christmas habits.
So of we went, heading to Saratoga to fill the tank with V-power and Sunoco, half-and-half some 16 gallons. Nose towards hills to Castle Rock state park and Santa Cruz, a shot of Pacific Coast highway and more serpentine roads... 110 miles and 15 gallons later, happy faces. Not that bad Christmas day event compared to snowy Finnish style winter-ish conditions... can't complain
License plate is indeed finnish plate but seems to work pretty good here too... at least state patrol sheriff did not stop us while cruisin in highway along with him
Couple of pics ... and lastly the engine treatment that the car undergoes over the "winter" , sitting steadily in the carage already and waiting for wrenching
