Must be nice to be able to work on your car in February/March!

Around here the snowbanks are over my head.

Are you able to get Hagerty insurance on the Alpina? Much, much cheaper than regular companies.

If it makes you feel any better my place looked like this a few weeks ago.



Not really...Insurance over here must be purchased through government owned ICBC...well...Basic insurance needs to be. You can purchase extended insurance through private insurers, but so far, when I've checked it's more expensive or they won't provide coverage for vehicles more than 15 years old.

Gorgeous as usual, and the yard is looking good too.

Is it legal in your town to wash your car on the street with chemicals?

@jeazyc - Sorry I didn't see this sooner. No insurance on the car at the moment.

Yes, you can wash your car on the street. I usually try and wash on the grass, so the lawn gets watered at the same time
