Just got our SSR a week ago today and WOW, it is something else! I've had Corvettes, street rods, a Harley (still do) and this by far gathers the most attention.
I have also spent the past week reviewing all of the technical and non-technical posts to see if I can eliminate doing the the "wrong" things. Thanks to all of you for your input.
Now I know that for most of you, this is a "toy" or pleasure-only vehicle, but for some of us (me included) it will be a true-blue transportation vehicle for me. (SSR Fanatics? - Never fear though, all of my vehicles are always spotless in a climate controlled garage!)
Now, my wife & I are lucky enough to work from home, so the miles won't go up in a hurry, but I was interested into how many miles has someone on this forum put on their SSR the past year (or two)? And for the high milage members, what kind of major maintenance costs (tires, etc.) have you encountered?
Thanks for letting me join your very select group...... (Oh yeah, the BUFFY stands for Big Ugly Fat Friendly Yankee - We're in the South, ya' know!)

Here it is the DAY we brought it home next to Lake Arrowhead (where we live) Nobody should be as lucky as we are!
True about the other thread, but more miles have been put on since most people posted their mileage. I go back and edit my mileage about once every 2 weeks (yeah I drive that much), but edits don't show up as new posts, so probably no one else has even noticed.
I was wondering which stare has the most SSRs? I would imagine it would be one of the southern states. Florida would be my first guess or could it be Texas or California. Does anyone know? Arizona could also be in the top of the list.
Got our genuine embroidered dash pad from Dicktator installed today.
Top quality embroidery work, these are the good ones, not the thin swap meet stuff!.....Fits great, looks great!
Thanks Dick

Upon removal of the dash, I noticed several 7mm headed screws with washers were missing. Does anyone know the part number for these screws? Thanks and Regards. Bruce G.
I was watching Bitchin Rides the other day and they were tricking out a 53 Chevy pickup. When they got done it looked a lot like an SSR with one exception. The split windshield. Pulled up a pic off the internet and added a thin blue line. What do you think?

Last week I was sitting in a Denny's with my R in the lot when I was approached by Ken Feicht who lives in my town Tavares Fl. and has a SSR. In a quick discussion I found he was familiar with most of the key and knowledgeable members of the forum. He was very personable and offered expertise in...
