Default Easy Day Today

Typically the clay bar sessions are Corvettes, but, we helped a fellow club member with his FL snowbird wheels, he'll keep that down there. Came out nice, he's happy.

That thing is begging for a 427 LSX to be dropped in it.

I've seen the LS swap in a few of those and they get up and move...

You do great work Norm. I hated clay bar sessions, but didn't have a bunch of buddies to shoot the shit.

For some reason, this is a model that just doesn't do it for me. Personal preference for sure and I'm guessing that at some point it may become cool. The only other one that evokes my dislike as much is the Prowler. Same thing. If any last, they may become cool. I haven't seen a Prowler in years.

I personally like the Saturn Sky, I reminds me of a mini Corvette, kind of.............
What we do is just get together and have some fun. I have the place for that activity, good bunch of guys, no lefties, all retirees, mostly veterans, we enjoy the camaraderie and share the experience of having a Corvette.

There's a yellow Prowler prowling around our town. I had thought they were cool, but underpowered. They need a Hemi.
