I took the drain plug out of a Muncie to let the oil drain for a week.

Also black car that parked beside me reminded me of my glory days and the 76 fb...classic

Nothing on the Pontiac, but didn’t want the stitches in my finger to get dirty, so paid my son to play grease monkey, and get the oil changed on my Duramax. I just sat in my comfy chair at the bench and shot the bull with him. I like this!

Paid him?

He wants to eat, right?

294 miles on the 67 GTO today. The car performed flawlessly. There was a lot of 80+ mph cruising on the NYS thruway. The car stays with traffic without a problem with the 5 speed OD....80 is about 2500rpm. 105 is about 3200-3300rpm....I would guess.....
