Winter is best because...

[Cody Forbes]

I was of course being sarcastic about the 53 out, thats nice weather in my
eyes. I'm a cold weather kind of person, down 'till about the 20s then it's
too low. But Daytona see is usually in the 40s in the wee hours, and the 40s
while its raining really really really really really sucks.

bottoms and a headliner inside. Battery was dead, charged now and can't get
a fuel pump, other then that seems in working order. Not bad for free.
