That’s a damn shame. What was your penance?

That thing sat forever until his parents sold it in the 90's. They then found out it was a stolen car.

My C3 (and my C2) was the same. Loud as Hell without a lot of forward motion. 2.0T in my wife's Bimmer is probably faster than both.

Mine is loud only because it needs exhaust work. Until such time, it sounds cool. When fixed it will again be quiet. And slow. Yet still, I shall love her. Thus is Corvette.

You suck. My Delta 88 had 455 ci 2 bbl and 400 tq according to the book, mighta been more. Not looking it up. I embarrassed a caddy or merc or two. Dude in the Firebird is probably still pissed when he thinks about it.

Good morning everyone. After reading all the bad news on here yesterday I didn't feel like posting. I feel for all you guys and your losses.

Anyway, time to make the coffee and get going. Vehicles to get fixed so I can get to the lake this week. Later kids. ......

Morning Kermie and rest of youins.
My Internet and cell service was basically non existent yesterday, it's been horrible since Thursday.
New brakes and oil change on wife's car yesterday, watched the train wreck fence project, cooked some burgers and dogs and went for a sunset drive.
Fixing the ac on my car today and change the sludge i the Furd truck, it may be 4 years overdo...
Have a good Memorial day everyone and let's remember the reason for the day.

Morning/afternoon all. Had to make a run to the grocery store to pickup what the wife needed for dinner. Took the long way, both ways, in the Vette.

Took mine out today to run the normal parade route. I was hoping some other classics would be out, but we didn't see a single one. Anyway, the car ran fine, and it was a nice little cruise.

I'm wondering if all the classic car owners are afraid of the po-po with our "stay at home" order.
