It was an awful, hot, sticky weekend...but I braved the elements to install two new mirrors, and to prove my concept of an adapter plate allowing an Alfa Romeo steering wheel to be installed on a Fiat Spider. I LOVE the look & feel of the wheel, and it is AWESOME how it is 4.5 inches closer, making the driving position MUCH more comfortable. And it's GREAT how the larger diameter allows me to see ALL the gauges! I'm SO VERY happy with this!
day 115~lounging around
just got home, it's beautiful out, and we decided to take off the plastic wrap that was around the windows to keep the house heated. it is so great to see the sun coming through the windows, again. it was almost warm enough to take the top off the jeep, but decided agains it, although we did put in the new steering wheel cover and floormats, they look great in the jeep.
