It's about that time!

Pretty good downpours up here in New England this weekend, and when it's over, I'm hoping there's no salt left on the roads and I can break her out of winter storage.

Anyone else in the colder climates itchy to start the season?

I’m gonna try and take mine out of hibernation Wednesday, if there’s no more snow before then in Colorado. We’ve been clear of snow for about 2 weeks here in NM and got pretty substantial rain about 1.5 weeks ago. I’m clear down here but haven’t had a chance to take it out yet. Going to get my brother from the airport in CO on Wednesday and he hasn’t met the new car yet. Fingers crossed.

No not here. I live in Florida now. I left all that up in Rochester, NY back in 2007 when I left. Good riddance! Hope you all can get your Camaro's out soon!

We've had a lot wind and rain here in southern Nevada but yesterday I was actually able to take the vert out with the top down. I went for a drive, came home, pulled into the driveway while listening to Tom Petty's "Won't Back Down", sat there for a moment, and then took off on another ride....

Six speed manual, V8, top down in a Camaro.

Yeah..

The second biggest reason I left Oregon! I just got tired of the gray, soggy days. I grew up on the beach and loved the good days but the gray days just wore me out after 53 years.

Yep, Ohio is just a bad dream 20 years later.

Rained like hell here last Thursday. Don’t think there’s much, if any, salt left on the roads. She was out last night and will again later today. Close to 50*. The longer I keep it in the garage, the shorter my hotrod season is. Screw that.

I finally got a test drive in with my GPI 415 build. Hats off to Andrew Cammer & their whole team. The car is very easy to drive around town & gets downright violent when I smash the pedal. I was all I wanted & much more.

Yup, today was the day! No salt left whatsoever after all the rain here on Cape Ann, so I woke up the Camaro and went for a ride.
