i actually wish we had weather like that down here in florida right now...probably because we hardly ever get it (well, for another month anyway )

I don't even remember what it's like to drive my Vette with the tops on. I much prefer the open air feel.

I was out cruisin' on New Year's Eve- early- It was about 36' and I have no windows! Still loved it. Nowhere to go- just GO! (and lean in to the windshield)

andylmusic76 - Take your 76 out for a ride on Sat. Night the 6th to Checker's at University Pkwy and Lockwood Ridge. 100 plus cars with 10-12 Vettes. I am the old guy you saw at the T&T Shell with the Blue 71 Vert.
