Capevettes,

I think I saw that Z16 Chevelle at Muscle Car City listed at the Kissimmee (Mecum Auctions) coming up.

When I was there last year in February, they had just taken delivery of a 69 gold GTO. Still had New Hampshire vanity plates on it.

Happy New Year all.

The Z16 was a pale yellow color and was displayed on a revolving, elevated carousel. Nice car. I did not know it was going to Mecum to be sold. It won't go cheap, that's for sure. Don't recall that GTO. I think he had 99 cars on display. All very impressive.

I ventured out when the temperature reached 40°F and thoroughly enjoyed a counterclockwise run of the Catoctin Mountain Scenic Byway. I encountered only two other Vettes, a red C6Z06 and a black C6Z06 on either side of Frederick. HNY!

Gave up, hooked up the cute little factory supplied battery tender for now at least. Getting to the end of December not bad, though.

This weekend looks to be high 40s, even low 50s. Only problem is that its supposed to rain too.

I guess thats better than lower temps, because that rain will be snow instead. Might get 2 more rides in this weekend, then i think it's done until march/april

Getting this far was pretty good though. This time last year we had a couple of inches of snow already on the ground.
