But, I got a call yesterday (12/1) from my salemen and Car-Mine's at the dealership
I will not pick it up till the 11th.
It's 27 deg. out and we have snow!
They told me they will get it cleaned up and e-mail me a picture then keep it inside till I pick it up.
I think I'll go visit it this Sat.
So close.

That has to be hard nto being able to drive it away.

Post pictures when you can.

Orange Krate, I knew we had a lot in common.
Both were EMT's and both married to Scottish women.
Congrat to all of 11/15's.
Thanks Becky for the bag. Will use it when I go parts shopping at the local Chevy dealer.

I hate this cold and snow!!!
Never liked it and never will.
If I could talk the wife into moving south, I would but there's no way
she will leave the seven grand kids.
Hay wait a minute, just because she wont..... No it would never work.

I still need a name for my baby. My better half said I can not call it Baby. That was my last Camaro's name.
I have a few names
1) Cherry Bomb
2) Candy
3) CandI
4) Red Jewel
5) ?????

I need some suggestions.

Can't close it yet! I still don't have my car! My dealer said it's in Memphis a few hours away waiting on a truck.

Snowstorm looks like it may just be you and I holding down the empty garages now. I can feel imminent delivery pending but I don't think the water has broken yet! Come on Becky help us induce labor!!! Say some of your old black magic!!! Shazzamm! Poof! Darn still no Orange Krate! Wahhhhhh!

Hey Scottish...how about flat bedding your baby home? That way you can at least get her in the garage and put the electric blanket on her.

What a Gem! Ruby! Hmmm. That almost sounds like a good name! Hmmmm.

Orange Krate status... this is from a friend of mine who is a trucker out of the So Cal distribution center in Mira Loma.

"there are 3 orange Camaros in the Mira Loma distribution center ready to go to dealers, and one in their yard going out today, but no photos to confirm (whether it is mine)!"
The waiting game is grueling. I think it is worse then being an expectant father! I guess my priorities are transparent! HA HA HA

Well I finally took delivery of my car. I must be one of the last ones in the 11/15 class. It has snowed a few time here in MN so I had to drive it home on some snow/ice covered streets. I can tell you one fact, anyone who thinks they are going to drive a new Camaro during winter will be required to change the tires. The stock Pirelli P zero's have no traction at all. You let the clutch out at just off idle the the tires just spin. I drove her straight home and she will sit in the garage till spring. No fun for me for awhile. What a bummer that is. Here are a couple pic's at the dealership when I picked her up.

Ealfaro the truckers know the hours of the dealer and from what I have been told, they do deliver sometimes in the evening. My dealer has told me they have come in to the dealer in the morning and had a row of new cars lined up ready for detail that were dropped off the night before. I have seen a 9 PM delivery by the truck transport on a Saturday night at another dealer in Ventura. Naturally it was an IOM Camaro (sold) so I stayed and watched out of !!!

That is a sweet ride and it looks great contrasting with the snow! I think it will like a nice winters nap while you wait for the spring thaw to come!

It is overcast and gray here no rain and it is warmer! STILL no sign of Orange Krate!!!

I think I am the last of the 11/15 thread to take delivery. Did you know that Orange Krate now weighs 5800 pounds... because of all the sitting around and no exercise, she continues to grow toward that Svelt Suburban curb weight. I guess I will have to run some of that weight off once she arrives.

I am ready to send out a search party but I am afraid they will find her and take off to Vegas for the weekend!!!
