Nothing exciting.  Finishing up the trans work and cleaning it up and getting ready to get it back on the road.  I want to try to make it to Mopars at the Strip or at least Spring Fling.   I am in San Diego.

This is my first winter in Boston, and so far I've only heard people talking about snow. So I took my car for a spin in the spring-like weather. :woohoo:

Sweet 70 RT/SE.    I've had mine out for a few rides this winter here in NH.  But we finally got some snow and salt up here.  So I guess I'll put mine up on jack stands for the rest of winter ~ 3 weeks, I'm guessing.   :crazy:

Gonna do a little brake work and clean up the interior this weekend.

Steamed cleaned the entire underneath,  It took off most of the under coating!  :bananasmi  What a big job, yet very satisfing as it moved a whole lot closer to getting the underside ready for paint.
