Bostonian 71 demon
So tonight, I was a bad and didn’t do anything for the car. Instead, I drove to Denver in the middle of a pretty hefty winter storm. What should’ve been a two-hour round trip ended up taking four, all to pick up an early Christmas gift from my family: a vintage Sun 1120, still in working condition (and it even lights up). I've wanted one of these ever since I first got into cars and saw an old-timer back home using one. He was kind enough to teach me how to operate it. The guy I bought it from even threw in enough extra heads to make two more machines, some NOS parts, and all the original paperwork from 1972, showing it was sold brand new to the Colorado Highway Patrol in Pueblo. We'll have to rearrange the shop when the storm lets up this weekend to fit it in, but I’m beyond happy it’s finally mine.
