Yes as matter of fact, I have the Luck o'the Irish...everything I touch turns to fertilizer of the bovine variety.

Ya know I miss only a few cars, that I wished I kept, but alas....CalAltaDubber wrote:It's been 27 years of driving joy!

Mine were my 67MG, my 72 Rover 3500s and my 81 Diesel bunny....I too drove that off the showroom, and for 20 years it never let me down.
Gee If I still owned it, I probably would of had over 400-500K by now easily, but then never would have switched to a cabby and meet the wonderful folks that I have on this forum.....
Congrats, Kudos, and mostly awesomeness on the concurrent ownership, maintenance, and enjoyment of a good investment.
You need to treat the bunny to a tank of 130 Av Gas.... ( well ok high test)....
But I will tell you that a car runs really well on 130 Av Gas.... although it was about 4 dollars a gallon when I last bought a tank in the 70's.

Ya just don't see 115/130 Avgas any more. That stuff is really hard to find. All I've seen in the last 20 years is 100LL.Briano1234 wrote:Ya know I miss only a few cars, that I wished I kept, but alas....CalAltaDubber wrote:It's been 27 years of driving joy!

I guess a tank of Premium will have to do.

That sounds like a compliment, so thanks.charlilowex wrote:I hope my cabby would last that long too!
All it takes is regular maintenance and that special feeling you get when you put the car in gear and go for a cruise.
