If John had a car hauler he could take it without the worry of something not working properly on the way.

That would be nice but would like to get the painting all done before putting the glass in the doors. I could probably borrow an open trailer but couldn't take the panel down then because Frances wouldn't haul a trailer or drive the panel..

Not sure the dealership will make it an annual thing. They just moved the dealership into the old IGA grocery store that closed down and revamped it, this is their grand opening for the new digs..They said if the weather is bad that many of the vehicles can come indoors..
