Didn't get to do anything with mine today. Can't even look at it since it is in my garage under cover 1,400 miles south at my Florida place! I'll make up for lost time when I get back home in September.

Lowered it Thursday, drive-in dinner with the Corvette club Friday, then a cruise/garage tour/dinner with the Camaro club yesterday!

Trip to WalMart to pick up oil and filter for my wife's Malibu.

Wash and wax.

Exciting Sunday!

Wiped the dust off of it. Then, a twenty minute 'rubdown' with Chadwicks, and several nice clean microfiber towels. Paint and glass.

It was purring like a kitten when I left it (out in the garage) a while ago.

This may be the first day, in weeks, when it doesn't leave the garage.
But the day/evening isn't over yet.....
I have another car, I need to drive once in a while, just to keep it ready for service, if needed.

I thought of it...while it's at the shop getting a bunch of work done. It's like waiting for grass to grow.

I replaced the plugs after it began missing and gave me a "cylinder 7 misfire" code. And, I put in a new air filter, too.

I would complain about the difficulty in replacing that particular plug, but I have a V6 4th-Gen Camaro that is WAY worse and makes the driver side plugs on the Corvette a walk in the park.
