We're looking at rain in Friday in Seattle too. It's not nearly as much fun with the top up.

Default Awe Man!!

I'm off on Friday. Gosh; that really sucks. Maybe I'll ask the boss if I can just go in to work anyway.

If I work from home and it is in the garage, does that count?

I plan on ditching the boss early that day (real easy, he's 2500 miles away) and driving around that day if the weather is good.
I am forwarding a copy of this post to him!

I'm waiting patiently for parts....ok maybe not patiently. But if they get here my red '77 will be on the road Friday. I'll wave, even though the last c3 I saw didn't.

How about flat bed your vette to the mechanic day....well that is what I will be doing on Friday. I don't have anything major wrong but have 2 problems that are a 2 person job that there is no way I can get done so besides needing a break after all the work we have done lately to my baby. I hope the shop is slow so I can have my baby back Saturday afternoon or at the very least just before the 4th of July. Not to mention my lower back is killing me right now as my co-workers at the office are all laughing at my tilting walk calling me that Italy leaning tower thingy. I had a slight back injury when I was younger playing football and now in my early 30's it hurts me every now and then lately. Can't wailt till I am 60.....that should be fun with other injuries surfacing also.

Cheers.....

Default Mine is with me everywhere I go

I drive mine down into Chicago every day.
If it wasnt for the Vette I would be crazier than I already am.
If you see a mahogany 78 on I-94 that will be me.

Plan to drive the '82 on Friday. The club (Vets with Vettes and Corvette Owners) has blocked out Hooters from 1100 - 1300 so everyone should be able to swing by during lunch at some point. I'll post some photos!


I drove the Z in to work today...rained. No big deal, with this weather it was clear and the roads were dry by the time I drove her home. Still had to wash her before I put her to bed but atleast no road grime, just water spots.
