After 1 1/2 years with the convertible living at my parents house, I was finally able to get it back to my house today. It has pretty much been sitting since February '08 with my brother driving it occasionally. It cranked up pretty easy and off I went. I stopped by the the conveinence store to give it a shot of fresh gas and when I got ready to leave, she was DOA. I had to call a freind to bring me some cables and got it running again. Made the trip to my house (25 miles) with no problems. Man I missed driving it around. Anyway, it turned out to be dirty cables. I disconnected the battery cables and cleaned them. I reconnected them and she fired right up. Drove it to school this afternon to pick up the kids after school. Needless to say, they were excited to have it home again. Before we left the school parking lot, my youngest was already asking me to "burn rubber, daddy". It's good to have it back at my house :beep: . Thanks, Steven

I'm on straight days, 5-12's, until at least January. It's killing me. Can't find the time to put the car back together.
