Both cars look awesome. Love the body colors.

[birdsandbees]

Another Spring and Summer of cruising on all of the cars. Another 60 miles on the Bee today. I have about 2000 miles on her since restoration. Still not a chip in the paint, top or bottom, living on a gravel road!

[birdsandbees]

Just an update... I've passed the torch and have been letting #1 Son be the third generation to drive the Bee. I found something with a bit more pep and besides it was time. I was driving this car when I was 14.. #1 Son will soon be 40.

Maybe... but I'm not going to tell him that just yet. He thinks he was conceived on a picnic table.. LMAO..

Hi birdsandbees,               18 December 2022

Do you think he might know by now? If he does We're sure he's proud of Mom and Dad.

I'm sure who my mom is, just not sure of the other.

We must have missed something along the way. We don't understand your comment quoted above.

Hope all is will up yonder and that spring is in the air.

Here in Phoenix we have 2 seasons: Hot and Not so Hot.

Hi 70 sublime,            20 April 2023

Didn't think in that direction. Any idea what the problem is?

We don't go to other sites and don't know where they are. We did look around a long while back but found a lot of trashy posts so we just stopped.

We thought the new version of SMF would help bring in more folks. It sure is a lot nicer than the older version.

Thanks for the Heads Up.

Gotta love it! Nothing wrong with a little improvement. What are the chances of an NOS grill and bezel assembly popping up just 100 miles from home?!

[hemi-hampton]

That's gotta be a rare find. Congrats   Leon.

[birdsandbees]

5 hour round trip with a 1.5 hour yack... and in my grimmy hands today. I have never seen an NOS Bee grill assembly for sale in 40+ years. Cost me 2/3rds of what Dad paid for the car new, but it is what it is...

[timmycharger]

Very nice score!

Mauro's place is deceiving....looks normal until you get inside.
