Awesome shots Dave!! I took the baby out for some exercise in low 70 degree sun and said a prayer for the new trailing arms I installed.

Well, I came back with all 4 tires where they're supposed to be and a permanent grin after a quick cruise, some fresh rocket juice, and playing with a new mustang at a light.

70s again today and I have the day off!!

Honey, warm up those wrenches!!

Vette(s): 1979, 350sb, as my kids affectionately call it "shit brown" Corvette purchased in 1996. 84,000+ miles. Not a show car, but I love her just the same.

Living on a dirt road has it's disadvantages!  I was able to fire the Pride N Joy up though a couple days ago to hear her rumble for a while!  I'll be lucky to see blacktop by May at this rate!

Oh well, need to try out that new timing application that's been bandyied around the forum here recently anyway.  Just hope you guys are online when I do it since I've never done anything like that before.

Glad to hear so many of the members could get out and enjoy the weather...and their Vettes, most importantly.

Took a Cruise on Saturday over to the Eastern shore of Maryland from Baltimore.  Went to Chesapeake City on the Delaware Canal - Great day for a Cruise - Sunny and 70 degrees!

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
The end of last week here in the Twin Cities metro area was glorious and by Friday afternoon saw a bunch of motorcycles out cruisin' and also a few tops dropped on convertibles.  Lots of melting going on though (ALL of our snow cover disappeared) so didn't feel like exposing "The Toy" or "BIGBRRD" to the slop.  But the warm weather was short-lived as a cold front came through Sunday afternoon and this morning dawned with a fresh snow pack of 6-8 inches.  Lots of fun as the ground was warm when it started falling so there's an inch of slush underneath it all.  It's like driving on Crisco...!!!  So have to wait abit longer for spring to REALLY arrive!

Yeah, through the natural conventions of weather patterns, Norsky, gets a preview of the weather here in Michigan basically all year long.  We had the same two days of gorgeous 60-70 degree weather, but last night and today are 40-50mph winds with snow flurries and freezing temps.  That should continue for about a week, then we'll get back to normal...for how long nobody knows - it's Michigan after all!

 St. Patty's Day Beer Clink We can't really complain about the winter we have had here in Michigan. Been very mild for the most part. And to think that the 20th is the first day of spring....
