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.

I think I have seen that Camaro. I believe I saw her and the car parked at the Simi Shopping Center years back. Does she still have the car as of 2/8/2025? Orange Krate is alive and well. Staying pristine.
