Up until about 2 months ago I was daily driving my '76. I drove it as a daily for almost a year and a half. It was great, even last winter when it was cold as hell outside and I was running with no top. Sure, I got rained on a couple times. I would get strange looks from people who were warm and comfortable in their late model SUVs and cars, but they couldn't see the grin underneath my scarf wrapped around my face as I pressed the gas peddle and made that V8 roar.
People at work in "cubical world" would always give me comments like "aren't you cold?" and "wheres the top for that thing" or "are you going to be OK driving home?" ,and I would always respond with a smile and say no problem! They will never understand what it's like to drive a vehical that is their "dream car". I have made the dececion to place value in an object that puts a smile on my face everytime it starts up (and even somtimes when it doesn't).
Even as I write this now, I'm looking forward to driving the Bronco to work tomorrow.
The "Bronco life" is the only life for me.:xyxthumbs:
