What a great day...
...for me. Third day in a row with 70+ degree weather
( normal highs are in the low to mid 50's) and since it is my
birthday today (mine, the cars is in October) I figured that I
would take the '66 out for a long ride. Actually drove the C5 too
and what a difference between the two. Havn't driven it in about
2 months so it felt really good to shift through the gears and
hear that motor rev out.
Hopefully everyone else gets a chance to drive theirs too before
the weather turns but spring is just around the corner!

Happy birthday Great way to spend it. I emptied the garage today and got all the cars out for the first time in a long time. The roads were finally dry and almost clean. Felt great

I read your post and it got me fired up and ready to take my '66 out when I get home from work this evening. But it looks like I may be stuck at work a little later than I had planned. The tornado that just landed in my city (Edmond, Oklahoma) is making me a tad nervous about a joy ride this evening. Unless AutoZone has new wiper blades in stock.....
