Bilsteins, Air-Lift 1000 and parking at the Beach

Okay today I got the OCC back with the whole package for towing my Airstream. 4 Bilsteins and an Airlift-1000 with onboard compressor. The compressor is activated by a wireless control from the drivers seat or standing outside the car. With 6 lbs of presure the car sits one inch higher than it did and exactly the height I need for hauling the trailer.

It drives fantastic now. The only thing I did not like about my new car was the mushy ride. Now it is firm, but not too stiff. The steering is so much better, it is a pleasure to drive.

Wife Judy and I drove down to the beach to enjoy with my 85 year old Mom who was visiting. You can drive on some Oregon beaches which was great cause Mom has a hard time walking far.

Great pics! I'm really jealous, want to stiffen my OCC up like that too!

Looks like a nice day at the beach!

I don't remember seeing a 69 Custom S wagon before. Neat!

Flash,
My feet are 1947 models. I love those shoes for the beach and summer. Until last year I wore dress shoes to work 5 days a week. now I switch between flip flops and my Gorilla feet in the summer. In the winter it is rubber boots for beach combing and Romeos or flip flops.

I still go out of town for work about once a month and wear regular shoes.
