[ATTACH] Life got a little hectic towards the end of 2020 and the roadster had to go on the back burner for a bit. Then starting late spring of...
Minor update: I finally got around to lifting the body of my roadster off and stashing it away. It’ll double as a storage container for all the...
Exactly. I want that peace of mind whenever I take it out. I don’t want to lift off the clutch too quick one day and have to find a flatbed or...
Eventually the roadster made its way home to where it is now. I drove it out to my bar one day just to see how it did and it drove great aside...
Oh, no! Mark is perfectly fine. He just swears he won’t get in the roadster until I have a windshield. We tasted antifreeze for quite a while...
