Both of mine are slowing down , and the pace of degradation is accelerating.....
But they are in Heaven with two of the girls home
I hope they both make it through 2021

Off topic but the path? Is that part of the street and if so who or what removed the snow? Never lived in a snow climate.

Great shot of a classic beauty. Sometimes it hits me how 850's really stand out in the crowd nowadays.
It's mostly my 18 year old daughter who is driving our 850. I don't think she really appreciates it yet. When I tell her that she is driving a 25 year old classic car, she only shrugs.

She'll get it when it's too late and the 850 belongs to another family member! That's what happened to me and my grandfather's 1971 Dodge Dart Swinger 318. My uncle took it.

My 960 died today. For the second time. First the trans (from the diff), then a broken rod thrown through the block. This is where The Cloud will sit until after I strip it of good parts.
