George, those pictures are too cool. I do drive my car often. Truth be told I would rather drive it than sit next to it on a lawn chair.

I had plans to drive it all Thanksgiving week because I took some vacation time...but it rained all week.

I'm off again on the 17th until the new year so I have high hopes of making it my daily driver. My car was my daily driver back in 1994 so I understand that these cars were purchased for transportation...I guess my original question was geared to..How long does the short trip have to be not to do more damage than good. i.e.. gas in the oil that type of stuff. Sometimes I just don't have the time to go for the long ride...just a quick trip to keep everything working.
