yep, driving a convertible is like a day at the beach!

Actually that day it was raining in buckets and went to pick up the son at school about 3 or 4 blocks away. Started when I left and ended when I pulled in the driveway. Used it sitting at the school waiting on him to come out and the short ride home. The black dog loved it, the other one that's in the car stood on the console under the umbrella.

Perty top isn't it? That was pre-waterbed mattress when we lived in the desert.

Thanks FE for the Today's Posts tip.

I'm starting to think the people who say you're smarter than you look might be right.

Awwwwwe gorsh! It's only half true

Hey Mr. RNRR,
I knew that. Back in 1986, I did a rebuild of the Brakes, and the guys at the shop where I did it recommended the Silicone Brake Fluid, so they flushed the system and we put it in.

Someone once told me that to run the Dot 5 stuff you had to have special seals that are made for it.

Nothing like that got mentioned back then.

The Harley that I use to have used the Dot 5 stuff, not sure if there was anything special about the seals in the system though.

This time Lorrie is going to get just regular Brake Fluid like is in Ms. American.

May want to stick with the Dot 3 or 4 unless the system was designed for the Dot 5. The Dot 5 actually has a lower boiling point then the 3 or 4, but it also doesn't attrack water/moisture like the 3 and 4 do.

THAT was the big selling point that I got back in 1986.

Just some food for thought for you.

As far as I'm concerned, putting in the Silicone Brake Fluid was a mistake.

Anyway, will keep you all updated.
