I had to get out of the house today as I was going stir crazy. I decided to take a drive into the mountains in WA (north of Seattle). I'm lucky to have this on my doorstep.

Very nice - social distancing looks quite easily achievable there.

Last pic - what kind Angel Eyes? They look good (if a little too blue).

Nice, parts of WA are beautiful. I spent some time on Bainbridge Island over the last 3 years and toured the coastline to the North and West in my free time.

Great photos, my kind of day. So great to get out in the mountains. Plenty of water in that stream too. Ours in SW UK a bit easier to cross at the moment. Due to lack of rain.

Thanks OP, just what I wanted to see today.

I should have been on holiday in Seattle (cancelled obviously).

Great pictures and a fabulous car. Just a bit jealous smile

Thanks all. I am lucky to have all this on my doorstep. I moved over here from the UK in 2008 (originally from N. Ireland) and love the place.

Interestingly, this was my first real drive in this car. My cousin blew the engine and was going to scrap it, so I bought it off him (dirt cheap) and put in a new (refurbished) engine and converted it from SMG to manual gearstick.

Maybe I should make a thread on the resurrection.

Some nice photos there, well done on all the engine and gearbox replacement.
