Default Gettin' Ready To Give The Ol' Girl A Thrill

Well, not in the sense most of you would lean towards, but I'm sure you'll understand.

Up until now, I had fired up the C3 exactly once so far this year to wake it from it's winter slumber. Now that the weather will start getting cooler, I will have the desire to start driving it, 'cause the cabin is a tinder box during warmer days (no AC).

Since I wasn't driving it, I had it boxed in because of my buddy Phil's Z06, so I switched them out today for an easy in and out. Actually going to take it on our weekly Thursday breakfast run, kind of looking forward to it, temps will be in the 70's.

I'd like to sell it to open the garage up for another vehicle or two, but then again I'm a little attached to it, it's just neat to look at.............

We'll see how she runs tomorrow, may try to get more use out of the ol' girl.

It was 95 here today but the humidity was less than 130 percent so I dusted off the Miata, jumped it off since it has been way too hot to drive here without air and drove it to work after lunch. Nice ride with the top down and the wind in my face.

Everyone has a particular generation of Corvette that, for them, is THE Corvette.

For me, it's the C3.


I'd keep it, Norm!

I think the 'Ol Girl is going to give you the thrill
Nice to have her out again.
