    Brought the '89 TA home...........

    Got the '89 out last night....I put the car away in Oct '07 and this is the first time out since then. Had to hook up the battery, charge it a little, and it fired right up. Boy, did I forget how much I love driving it. Took some pictures/video this morning...............












    Here's video of the front w/ the strobes on (couldn't get it to upload here for some reason, so here's a link)......

                SWEET! Is it really Festival Car #50?

                I'm actually going to pick ours up from my Dad's place tomorrow...I think...lol...

                Now if we can only 1quik6 to bring his down from the U.P, we'd have a trifecta....

                      Jeff Jeff Jeff, No it's not a festival car remember all festival cars where cloth interior. I managed to snag that plate off Ebay quite a few years ago.

                      I'd love to see Eric's car someday too. He won't be at this years M&G because it conflicts with a show he's attending in the U.P., but maybe one of these years.
