Deb and I will be in Prescott so can't make it. The July 4th event is out as well at TCC since I just sealed a portion of our driveway so the ZL is trapped inside until Friday. Ugh.

Count us in for everything else though, especially the Mystery cruises and the Mount Lemmon runs!

Have a fun 4th all and be safe.

"Hello Everyone!

The tragic loss of 19 firefighters have touched all of us. I would like to announce that there will be a tribute to our fallen heroes. Old Pueblo Vintage Fire Brigade has graciously accepted my invitation to bring a couple of their vintage fire trucks to the show. I will read the names of the fallen firefighters. With each name, the bell will ring in their honor. Please come out and show your support and pay tribute to Arizona's Bravest."

Anybody planning to attend?

Any chance we could organize something with firehouse subs again after the incident involving the 19 firemen?

Turns out this was a crack in the HID len, weird. Ziv at Watson is replacing both lights, they are good to work with.

Will you be able to get your Headlight Armor off the old ones? I haven't tried removing them yet. I would think you can get them off and re-use them.

Probably not, Ziv told me he could make it up by giving me the side Camaro letters so I could paint them black, or install a Heritage grill, I would need to buy the grill. I am on the fence about the grill, and if I get one, if it should be black or IOM.......

Okay, I'm about ready to throw this whole K&N piece of $&#% in the garbage. How in the world do they expect you to take a thick metal reinforced insulating trim and get it to fit snug around all of these 90 degree turns on this blasted heat shield?

Absolutely a waste of my time. I should just send it back. Plus upon taking the stock air cleaner off one of the metal grommets popped off its mount and went God nows where into the depths of the engine compartment.

I should have never bought this car. Waste of money.

There's a easy trick to putting the trim on, heat it up with a hair dryer. If you need help, give me a call.
