Only better question to that would have been "Do you want to take the Camaro out… to a secluded spot high on the hill overlooking the city"

HAHAHAHAHA

That's awesome Ed.
Sounds like a keeper!

Thanks Wayne!

Good thing we made it out Monday. As of Tuesday night we’re now in full fledge hibernation mode.

Very cool backstory with the car, I like that you two continue to enjoy it and improve on it. I really like your color choice also; very clean car.

I feel your pain with this weather, every year I wonder why I live where I do!

Thanks Casey! This car has been quite the journey. I’ve enjoyed learning new things as we made the changes. I definitely learned things take longer than you first think. I’m glad the project list is winding down and Beth can start putting some miles on the car again. I'll start on either my Impala or another project next.

Beth absolutely loves the dark blue. Even bought matching nail polish. She really gets a kick out of cruising alone. People get excited seeing a cool old car driving around town. They’re always surprised it’s a girl driving. Then their minds are blown when they find out it’s a manual trans and has a 600hp BBC under the hood.

Yeah, -20+ wind chills can really make a guy reconsider his living arrangements!

Too funny ED! My sister bombs around in the '69 Camaro - big blower sticking out of the hood -- and people are blown away it's a SHE driving…

AND she's not afraid to get on it!

Well -- not like WE do but she'll still get after it.

That car is an attention getter for sure! You did a nice job sprucing it up.

Beth said she had some fun with the car before picking me up. I was a bit nervous sending her out alone since we hadn't put miles on after fixing the electrical/fuel leak problem. I am extremely happy that it was a successful voyage. Having the car ready for her to hop in and go have some fun is exactly what I wanted to accomplish.
