I'll drive mine with the top off but I'll be sweating. 102 degrees today in Oklahoma City. Friday looks about the same. But I would rather sweat in my Corvette than be cool in anything else.

Vette(s):
SOLD - "The Toy" - '70 Convertible
SOLD - "The Beast" - '90 ZR-1 (#682)
SOLD - "Betty" - '28 Ford Model A Tudor
SOLD - "BLKBRRD" - '78 Pontiac Trans Am
"BLUBYU" - '04 Coupe
Will have to see what the weather will be like.  Pretty sure I won't have "The Toy" back on the ground by then anyway.  And I highly doubt "The Beast" will be allowed out of the garage for that purpose.  Unhappy

Big smile WELL, IF I can get time, I will push for it, and I can get my wife to push the pedal to bleed the brakes, install the other trailing arm and get it on the  ground, we will be on the road around 0700 hrs.  WATCH, it will be raining. The week-end will be busy. Three shows, three different days. The re-build was a cinch, no problems except for getting parts. THANKS again to thoes who contribute to the site and print advice.  Mark     Clap          ENJOY the ride.    WAVEThumbs Up
