Default Doubled up today

The last 6 or 8 weekends I been doing "honey does" either on the house or the lawn

Woke up this morn and decided the H*!! with it.

Took the goat out for a 50 mile drive this morn
Got the GTO back home and uncovered my Vette.
She aint been driven since last August.
Took a bit to get her started....once started I found a split fuel line at the filter before the carb spewing fuel. I had some fuel line laying around in the shop and took care of that problem.

It was a great day. Got a chance to get both cars out with no major issues except for the Chebbys A/C decided to stop working

Beautiful cars! That GTO looks downright mean, and a 69 Vert sidepipe Corvette is one cool ride!

Who needs A/C in a convertible anyways?

A/C is a must, even in a convertible.

When the sun is beating down on you at noon on a 100 degree day, you close the top and turn on the A/C.

It doesn't matter if the top can go down or not, most folks prefer a car with A/C for all-around comfort.

I sure do, I have 2 converts and both have factory A/C.

I was kinda being sarcastic, but I imagine in the hotter areas of the country you would want A/C at all times. It sure is nice to have air.

Thanks to all for looking

To Salem1912...Nice cars man...Silver has always been my favorite color on a Vette. I'm not especially fond of white but that is color my Vette was born with and after owning her for 42 years that's what she will stay with.

To Bob Vidan......we would love to take the GTO to the nationals in Seattle in July, but my son is getting hitched that weekend. Being the GTO is his, all I said to him was... thats "p!$$ poor" timing .

To Simple Man....No I didn't sleep in the garage..altho I did sleep on the couch.
Actually my wife was the one who suggested I needed a break.
