<p>I’ve got 2 sets. One for show, one for everyday use. I use to have the butter brown ones everyone sells and hated them as they clashed with sandalwood carpet. Spec manual shows white mats with sandalwood interior so I switched to what I think would have been correct with my interior.</p>

<p>White floor mats, I drive mine every weekend, they wouldn't last. Do you have special shoes you reserve for only driving the car?<br/> Please tell me their blue suede LOL</p>

<p>I'll be heading out to Charlotte, NC for the first meet-up with the Carolina CLC Region. We will be taking in the <a href="http://www.carolinasaviation.org/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Carolina's Aviation Museum</a> . One of the highlights for me will be to see the "Miracle on the Hudson" A32-214 Airbus that Capt Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger flew into the Hudson River in 2009.

<p>Well, our car got the bucket and sponge this morning too and while it doesn't have Dino's shine, she scrubbed up pretty good huh.... a blind man would be pleased to see it.</p>
<p>Checked all the fluids, vacuumed the insides, cleaned the whitewalls and even chucked a bit of Armoral over the dash top. I need it looking spiffy for tomorrow.</p>

<p>We've got our monthly Cars n Coffee morning tomorrow from 8 - 10am and then a run to Poona for a picnic lunch. I've got a stack of snags ready for the Barbie, plenty of cold drinks (We'll cop 36* C tomorrow)</p>
<p>Because I run the Cars n Coffee deal, I know we've got some new rides turning up too, so trying to pick the best one will be harder than picking a broken nose. I also do the write up for our local rag, so I try to pick one car as a bit of a feature thing.</p>
<p>I reckon, with the heat forecast for tomorrow, it'll be shorts and thongs and a t-shirt. (That's pretty formal for around here) Well, I might bugger off and clean my thongs, late time I wore them, they mud on 'em and nothing worse than a dirty thong.</p>

<p>Only problem is Dino is a Red Blooded Male.... although Robert Palmer's Heavy Nova and Riptide are in constant rotation on my iPhone during my morning 2.5 mile pooch walks. Speaking of Heavy Nova there is a song that reminds me of you, Tony... DISTURBING BEHAVIOR.<br/>But while we are getting a crazy with the RP songs... I think Dino's RP song would have to be "I DIDN'T MEAN TO TURN YOU ON" from Riptide!</p>

<p>Now, I wouldn't go that far! LOL Dino does strike a handsome pose, though! Looking forward to getting it out on the road more this coming year and attending more car shows. Just sent in my registration for the CCAF (Carolina Collector Auto Fest) March 9 & 10 car show in Dorton Arena in Raleigh, NC. Love that venue!</p>

<p>I love to see people daily driving Cadillac's of any vintage!!</p>
<p>Greatest car ever made in my opinion, while my preference is for '56-'64 I love 'em all. Dino is an inspiration for those of us that keep putting off fixing up our cars. That gold coupe may be prettier than Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast At Tiffany's". </p>

<p>I was pleased to find this post as I was getting ready to ask about the adjustment of these mirrors. Like Jason, I also have to turn mine down and inward quite a bit to be able to see from it. I also have to push the inside door panel adjustment knob all the way forward (toward the dash). I am 6'3" so my seat is all the way back, but I still find it strange that I have the mirror angle/adjustment maxed out for viewing.

I also have to push the inside door panel adjustment knob all the way forward (toward the dash). I am 6'3" so my seat is all the way back, but I still find it strange that I have the mirror angle/adjustment maxed out for viewing. I think the mirror looks strange twisted inward like this, but it has to be functional for safety. Unique thing is on my 1961 it does not have to be turned in and even though the seat is all the way back as well, I still have quite a bit of adjustment left in the mirror utilizing the mirror adjustment knob without being maxed out.
