    After 7 years and 9 months this cat is ready for the open road. As this was a complete restoration, I am going slow with over-the-road testing. So far she runs extremely smooth. Vehicle was restored to its original shade of BRG, and an interior color of suede green.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
