I had mine out the other day for a 5 minute ride to even out the flat spots on the tires.
Found that the paint is really starting to flake off my hood Cry.  Going to have to get an estimate to get a hood painted. Can hardly wait to do that (insert sarcasm here).
Also found some loose trim rings on my tail lights so i took them all out and re-glued all of them.  Put them back in tonight.
Was thinking about driving to it to work tomorrow but probably wont.

Hey everyone!
yes, its been a long 5 months~!!! it will get up to 16C (62F) in Calgary today, so I think that it will be okay to fire up the 454!...it'll run rough for sure....but it was not a super cold winter, so I hope it will not be too bad.
cant wait to get her out on the road!

spring is a comin!!! Enjoy everyone!!!

I went out in the garage today and woke up the Vette and the wife Challenger. It felt good to get 'em out this early in the year. Nothing like rowing through the gears for the first run of the year. Cool
