    Unhappy It's getting too cold to ride

    I haven't been on hear lately. I started on a winter project(said this before)I had planed on doing a restore on a '63 ford. but it didn't work out.so to keep me from going insane I started two projects. one I am building a trailer for my spyder(not enough room)to pull on next trip sometime in spring.The other I'm going where I haven't gone before.The '23model-T that I rebuilt everything butt paint an interior.Well I am going to do that this winter.Wish me all the luck you can please.I posted some pics in a album. I will be going between both projects.the trailer I am starting with a trailer from Haber freight. I will post pics of both as they come together. Pete

    Projects are good! They keep some of us from going nuts--or help with the situation anyway. Keep us posted on the progress.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    I rode this morning, and I live in upstate NY. With the snow coming it is time to get out the snowmobiles. When I am not riding I will be building oak and cedar furniture.

    Pete,
    I think that we'd all like to see pictures and progress reports.

    Here's to hoping that you don't have any parts left over!
    (Do minidozers come with any extra parts that CAN be left off of them?)

    Well when you get a big enough pile of leftovers; just build yourself a second machine!

    I would love to by a wrecked spyder and rebuild it. That would be an awesome way to spend the winter.

    Bob I have to tell you I know a little about but not a lot of anything. Lucky for me my nephew gave me 4or5 gallions of auto paint. so if I screw up on one gallion I can try again. so there is no telling what color it will in up being. for me I am going to need it Pete
