Had the 65 out last Sunday. Tooling around for a "Sunday Drive". But, not like a Sunday driver, nope no way. Was around 70 deg and Sunny. :)

That could be a G.M. promo photo. I love it.

Even the Amish are getting out their summer rides....

We were traveling to Madison to yesterday so that we could go to our grandson's swearing in to the Marine Corp on Monday when we spotted an Amish couple out in their convertible...

It was a beautiful sunny day yesterday and we decided to take the two lane roads from MN, through IA to get to Madison instead of using I90....

Took advantage of the nice weather and light traffic this morning. That's the Hudson River looking east towards northern Westchester.

I've already had the 06 GTO out a couple of times to validate some upgrades I did recently. Latest tune and dyno test shows 388 rwhp. Will be a while before the 64 gets to come out.

We'll be getting some rain later in the week, which should wash any remnants of salt off the roads. The toy cars will be out soon....

I'm in SE. Pa. and I drive mine all year long. In winter it is sometimes 2 or 3 weeks before the roads are clean again. But this year I have been able to drive it almost once a week this winter. We have had a very mild winter so far.

MarkS57 03-17-2020 02:12 PM

Was out again this past weekend. Driving through the Sourland Mountain area and around town. Decent weather & few nice complements from passers by. :)

Goat on the loose !
 
Picked up my goat from the tranny man ,it was worth wait ! Tripower + 2004r = Pontiac excitement. Runs good past 100.mph WIR here we come !

Weather has been very nice up here lately and with the last month off due to Corona, I figures I would get the old Girl out for a ride.
lasted about an hour and started herring noise from engine. limped it home and did a few checks, finally pulling valve covers and found
a broken polylock. Found all the pieces and had to wait a week to get another set. So maybe tomorrow we will give it another try, as long as nothing
else pops up. Was ****ting bricks when I heard the noise.

Rich-Tripower 04-16-2020 09:13 AM

4-6 inches of snow forecast here today........

Lemans64 04-17-2020 09:51 AM

Did get out for an hour cruise yesterday after doing needed repairs, mid 70's and sunny. Did my social distancing from any other Cars.

Dick, I love the stance of yours and her's! I am ordereing springs, probably from Eaton Detroit. What did you use to get the ass end up?

Dick Boneske 04-27-2020 11:42 PM

For my red car, I ordered air conditioning springs for the front and convertible springs for the rear. The rears are S352 in the Ames catalog. I added the insulators, S355, to give a little extra height. Fronts are S322.

On my wife’s car, I used air shocks in the rear. I wish I’d have put A/C springs in the front..
