When it snows here, even 2 inches is a disaster.
Some of that is because by the time its gets cold enough to dump snow, there is already 3 inches of hard ass ice on the roads.
And this part of the world is all steep hills and mountains and bridges.
And we are pretty consistantly rated amongst the worst drivers in the nation.
And they dont salt.
Which for a car guy is just awesome.
Because the state policy stuffs priuses and subarus in the ditch while not rotting our cars and trucks
I have a few that ive been chasing for a couple of years now.
Up around the Sequim area is a 1968 Charger RT parked right next to a 1968 Olds Cutlass S
They havent moved since the late 1980s.
No rot, hardly any rust.
And he wont sell either one not even with cash waving like fish bait.
Nope, hes gonna restore them.
Dudes about 80.
But the one I really really really want,
Is a 1931 Packard Super 8 Coupe.
Its in a barn not to far from here.
It started running rough so the owner called a mechanic.
The mech came over, said it needed a valve job.
So he drained, the rad, pulled the head, drained the gas tank and left.
He never came back.
That my freinds, was in 1964.
All original, all intact, fluids drained,
Packard straight 8.
And his kids dont give a **** and he wont sell it.
I think hes about 92 or so now and just an awesome guy to know
Yep, I have the trailer on emergency standby at all times
