          It's the thing you use when wanting to turn around in the opposite direction when still moving at speed without using the steering wheel

            The red car, again, story. husband out there drilling and working on it still. It actually turned on the other day and he was able to pull it out of the garage. but now something about the gears and the brakes. so back to the drilling noise coming from the garage. his brother will be over Sunday to help with the "whatever" on the car.

                  Its a 1962 or 1964, one or the other. Not sure husband will let it tour that far.

                    After 9 months out at her beauty spa, Sasha came back home. 1964 Corvette. She is again leaving this morning for a Corvette show 2 hours from home in her new closed trailer. Husband all excited.

                          I love the new colour - so much richer than the earlier red; he has done a smashing job on it, that's for sure.

                                I can't reach the doors on the opposite side or behind to lock manually, going round and locking a door on a busy road is suiside.
                                I just have 2 buttons unlock and lock, two keys with one a being a broken circuit board but the key works. If I lose the main key the other will open and work the ignition but wake all the neighbours in the process.
