Looking for a third brake lamp cover, part # 19330404.
Is it available?
Also, still interested in the passenger side wrap around cover that we were briefly discussing in February. (See photos sent Feb 13, 2021)
Let me know at your convenience. Thanks!

Great to "hear" from some of the "old timers" on here! Still have my white XLR but my
youngest son treats it like his own. Spent the Sebring weekend (March 19-21) with Cubby and Supa who traveled down for the races.
We are planning on attending next year (March 18-20, 2022) and...
Located in Orlando. Not aware of a Florida grouping but if you form one I am in.

Tires
Saw your advice re: tires on classic cars. I just acquired a 1993 Cadillac Allante while at the Georgia, Road Atlanta race weekend in October 2018. The Cadillac had only 4,900 miles when I bought it. The original tires were dated 1991 and had less than 5,000 miles on them.

Selling the slower Red XLR
I recommend that after you sell your slow red XLR you look for a new 2008 white "lightning" edition.
It will be an awesome upgrade....

i will plan to be there unless over-come by other events. The 10 year reunion was just awesome and I can't wait for the 15th.
Wishing you all a great Christmas; New Years; and Spring in the meantime.......

This week brought the time for replacing the 2nd battery in my 2008 white XLR. I had used original

A Little Ray of Sunshine
I have registered to attend again this year and made hotel reservations. Despite major health issues
my goal is to be there and bring the "white lightning" along (or perhaps its the other way around)
No hard promises but I have accomplished every planned event this...
