Our daily driver "Jill" (nickname inspired by the memory of my parents' first car, "Jack" a hybrid '41/'47 Chevy)...
...is a low mileage 90s surivor inherited from my cousin in NYC.
It survived the 240 mile trek but this rusty bit needed the attention of a body shop to pass MD state inspection. Soon after getting it titled and registered, the water pump and one of the electric fans seized, taking away the radiator.
DIY
...so there's more budget left for folding bike parts, film, tubes, resistors, capacitors, etc. (toys) ;)
Got a brand new radiator and water pump locally, an original electric fan from the junkyard, wrenches and tools from Harbor Freight to get it back on the road, with help from my apprentice ;)

The car has taken us to the Baltimore/Washington, DC area, PA, NJ and back to NYC!
