I do not miss those N.E. Ohio days like that!

After sitting for 3 months I moved mine out to do an oil change on my father's car and it was slow to crank so I took the wife to dinner in it. It might have another problem tho since it kept losing traction at a couple intersections!

10 years old and still got some looks at the restaurant too!
Younger fella wanted to know if it was for sale.
Hell no!

Someday I'll convince the wife to move south..My pops lives south of Fort Myers, and we went down just before Christmas. Absolutely BEAUTIFUL! but then she remembers the summertime temps when she was stationed there and the sun poinsoning and the fact that her Yooper skin cant handle the heat and sunshine...Someday she might, perhaps, maybe get sick of the winter....One can hope...

romcjr · 01-23-2022, 06:06 AM

I haven't done it yet but I'm thinking about washing it . Since I am now retired I figure it can wait a day or two ...

MSgt O · 01-23-2022, 08:15 AM

Congrats on the retirement! Now you see EVERYTHING that way...it'll wait...

South of Spain sounds like a DAMN good retirement plan! I spent a few years in Seville...would go back in a heartbeat!

I’m thrilled to announce that the radiator cap replacement on the Camaro was a huge success. A good clean smooth repair is the grand victory of the home mechanic you know.

carefully reviewing repair steps in the factory manual and checking yootoob and the google for any additional tricks or tips before beginning work assures success for any repair for the home mechanic. RTFB. And if troubleshooting a problem remember that part of finding what a problem is requires finding everything the problem isn’t. That is directly from the Gospel According to Max.

test drive reveals no leakage at operating temp but will continue to monitor after longer operational duration. The issue of insufficient rear traction still exists.

Yes sir!! Congrates!! It is really cool to be retired, now you can do what you want to WHEN you want too!!! Nice to not have to worry about getting it all done on the weekend because you have to go back to work for 5 days!! I like to go fishing and as you know, the weekends are ALWAYS crowded where I like to fish, so when the weekend is over and they all go back to work, bingo, no crowds!! lol. Just one of the perks. Plus now instead of only having 2 days to do stuff, you have 7!!! Gotta love it!! And if you don't want to do anything, that is your choice, it can wait and you can just sit outside and watch the world go by.... AMEN!!

Made sure it's still in the garage and covered up for the horrible New Jersey winter.
