Update on the family life and Orange Krate
Since August I have been working on the two houses owned by my daughters.
Daughter 1 had a pipe break and flood her house. Daughter 2 bought a new (old) house that was for practical purposes a gut job. I have been repairing and replacing drywall etc... They both live in the same town about 120 miles away so I am not home to drive the Orange Krate. Today I am including an updated shot of the 3 Grandkids with yours truly. Score card: Jaxon 8, Kieran 10 months, Brynlee 3 months. Wallet empty. LOL BTW here is closer shots of the MBRP exhaust tips and a better video of the exhaust setup on cold start. https://youtu.be/J1D4ih83D5U?si=-2l_7H9WtVIBdx4z

Hi Robert. I have been off the grid for a few weeks. Not on PC or cell. Will fill you in offline.

Grandson #2 is also an IOM Camaro lover...
I have been beyond busy. With two new grandchildren this past year and other unavoidable life business, challenges, and travel, I have been MIA on Camaro5 for way too long.
With the brood of three grand kids we have been busy running back and forth to visit, and helping out our kids with their new arrivals. Thank goodness our 9 year old Grandson is able to help entertain his new sister and his new Cousin. This is an older photo of our second grandson enjoying my Camaro t-shirt as he sleeps. He is walking now and every time he sees the Camaro in the garage he points and gets all animated with excitement. Funny, I still do the same. Orange Krate has 27,800 miles on him. He is coming up on 15 years old and still looks and smells brand new. Still fun to drive and actually drives better than my new car. Chevy got these Camaros right. Soon to post Granddaughter and all the kids with Orange Krate!

A bit of late night camera play
I was trying out a new remote camera trigger tonight. This was a 30 second exposure using a tripod. What a great subject in the dark without a speedlight or remote flash. Orange Krate has a sunburst for an eye!

Thank you very much. The IOM paint is still one of my favorites. I ordered Orange Krate in fall of 2010 for my 55th birthday. I am truly wanting to buy an orange Corvette for my 70th birthday which is right around the corner.
