I have spent the last couple of days cleaning out the garage, buying and installing some new cabinets. More to follow on that project. Yesterday and today it was right at the 80 degree mark! Running around in shorts and tshirt while doing my honey do list!

BTW... I got to try Orange Krate's key when I went to the gas station and was shocked, and pleased to discover that the key is exactly like our two Volkswagen Beetles and Jetta keys! Very little difference. I am going to have to do what I did with the other keys and put a swatch of paint on the key fob to identify them. My wifes is white, daughters yellow and mine is cyber green and soon to add IOM! It is 11:00 PM here and I am off to bed. Need the rest but I know I am going to be restless and 4 AM comes early!!!

Try and get some sleep.....if you can i cant wait to see more pics

Mr. MDELK,
I can honestly say sir...There is NO moss under your feet. You are a hustler! It is refreshing to see someone with this kind of can do energy. I wish I had the extra bucks and time to be that aggressive on the mods. I have a kid in college and one in last year of high school. All I can say is...standby! LOL

Good job! It is nice seeing what is inside these Gen5's and what it takes to bounce them up in HP gains. I think I will start with the suspension on mine and then work on a set of gears. I don't foresee needing to go 170 MPH and I think holeshots would be vastly improved with either 3:73 or 4:10 gears. Carry on, and thanks for the photos!

No krate. Not waisting any time. Luckily enough my boys arnt to that age yet. 8 and 4. Still leaves a little play money for me. Might as well do it while I can. Was looking back and catching up and all your guys cars look great! Good I don't feel so odd anymore. Sounds like I'm not the only one that likes to click my key. It's addicting.

My wife also found a small dent on the passanger door and a couple small scratches on the front.
I got all repairs in writing and signed by the manager, to be done in the spring.
And as a gesture of goodwell, they gave me a second free tank of gas and my first two oil changes of moble1 FREE .

Updated the above pics today.
I didnt notice I had the same pics listed more the once.

Hay Orange Krate

It's 19 deg. today and a major snow storm.
Looks like last Sat WAS my only day to get Car-Mine home dry.
He's clean and covered up for the winter.
Hope you pick OK up today.

And remeber what your mother said:
"If you play with your fob you'll go blind".

Now that some funny stuff there boy, I don't care who you are!!!

And by the way folks...ORANGE KRATE IS HOME!!!!!

Only one minor detail... there is a key missing. We think we know where it is at (body shop from GFX painting) and should have that secure ASAP.

I have posted some much better photos on Orange Krates journal along with a brief synopsis of the evening. Unfortunately, no high resolution photos because of size limitations but these are pretty clear with existing resolution. See what you think: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...=1#post2636077

PS - Make sure you look at the HUD temperature display! That was in my garage tonight at midnight. That is so cold bbbbrrrrrrrr!!!! LOL!!!! Was 80 degrees today.

Way to go Orange Krate. Looking good.
