Vette(s): had a really nice one. sold it to a good friend. Purchased 2004 custom coupe in Feb. 2009 did not tell anyone here until August 2009. BAD I KNOW.
okay i got the vette today, first time since before christmas.  In case some don't remember I had an owee on my hood from a shop that installed new carb, waited until this winter to have them fix it just got it back, LOOKS GREAT, REALLY GREAT!!!.. So I had to go out of town for a few days so figure I would drive the vette, top down wednesday driving to Olympia, Wa.  Chambered pipes singing, wind blowing through both my hairs, what a great feeling, anyway, vette fired right up, clock was on time, everything seemed to work fine, (noticed a few small things)  Just needed to share that the WAVE is alive in Washington state.

Not so much snow here but it's the salt they dump on the roads. I don't even consider taking a Vette out til April. And yesterday, driving very slow cause I knew it was slick, I slid about 100 feet past my driveway on the ice with my work van! Apparently the township road crew missed my street!  Mike

Vette(s): 1974, 454 with 4 on the floor, matching numbers.
I put mine away last month, got tempted a few times to get her out though.
Now it's too late, we've had a couple of dusting's of snow, and some ice, just enough salt to dis-way me from going anywhere. Now it's colder that a witch's ^%$ ! and it's supposed to get colder !

Us Southern boys sometimes forget how fortunate we are with our weather down here, it's vette season all year.... well, almost anyway.  Good to hear you guys can get your toys out occasaionally during the winter anyway.
