Default Storing

I've gotten busy with camper and being given a second but champion young male Borzoi dog from a top Louisiana breeder because I was doing such a good job with my 25 month old female Borzoi, Princess Liliana, to go with my older greyhound girl. The new guy is now 21 months old, has more than 200 champions in his background and is stupendous..wait until he matures at 36 months. His name is Far Field Remoulade or Rom.

The two vettes stayed in the garage this winter as a result of the time and work to integrate these rather large and highly intelligent dogs into my home and when I looked at my 91 ZR-1 I didn't see the time to drive it much this year. Since it is not yet on a classic or antique license plate (25 years old) the insurance and license requirements drop way down when they do. Given time and energy I decided to cover them in their dust covers in the garage, mothball the license plates with the state and not cover them for liability for the next 18 months or so until 2016 when I can re instate the plates and by then probably be down to two big Borzoi and have more time. Hardly seemed worth it for two or three hour long uses a year so now the 76 and the 91 are carefully stored in my insulated garage.

I always have new interests and will come back to this one but not before 2016 probably.

Lance Pearson...the Z is a fantastic car.

Make sure you do something to keep mice out of it and the motor.

Yes. My garage is part of the house, insulated and sealed and it has never had a mouse and never gets over 80 in the summer or under 60 in the winter with the furnace and gas hot water heater in there so it should be good conditions. They are usually under their dust covers anyway.

Thanks.
