This morning Santa delivered my Christmas gift a little early!

A Cal Look under the snow is not a common sight

 I also made some nice (easy) drifts taking the beast home  Grin






But it is now safe and secure




Thanks again Lanny, this car just leave me speechless...

Nice to see it made it safely to it's new home.
 It will be interesting to see it parked along side it's old brown budy the Heb Rod.

the drive home wasn't part of the initial plan but I had no choice  Embarrassed

I cleaned up the underside as much as I could and will do some more tomorrow.

This car is so nice to drive it will be driven and will inevitably get some rain, dirt, gravel...

but will also get cleaned and waxed as well  Grin

Too long for my taste , about 2 months by train to Montreal + boat to Le Havre.

But I am happy that it got here intact.

Kudos to you for not being a wuss when it comes to a little snow.

I plan on driving my '64 sunroof on dry winter days when it's done.

Drive 'em!

It's a Mini Marcos, the 67 was delivered at a friend's shop specialized in old Mini's.



It's a nice place full of interesting cars. He is also looking after this one for me:



A more snow (and girls ...  Grin) oriented vehicule.
