Everything went smooth until it was time to turn the headlights on and she had to turn the high beams off. The left foot needed a little training.  But glad she enjoyed it and got her comfort level back with some old school driving.

That’s awesome that she felt confident in driving the Bird! My wife has said once or twice she’s not sure if she trusts herself to drive ours now when I finish it… knows it will be a handful. And it’s only been 23 years, has a 4spd now!
We just had that discussion on the dimmer switch as I was installing the carpet. She’d forgotten about that!
