It runs..... it just doesn't stop...

It's over at a friend's house, who also has a citicar. The idea was that we would both do brake overhauls as soon as we got some spring weather!

I just got an E-mail the other day from the MREA asking for car show submissions. I'll have to check and see if anyone else is going to have a Citi there or not.
