Default My Cars Birthday today!

On April 18th, 1968, a Cordovan Maroon, 427-390 A/T, Coupe rolled off the assembly line. Now, 39 years later, this very car is now mine. Happy Birthday to my car!

Celebration plans include a 30 ft. climb up a ladder to do some work on my roof. If I live through that, I'll have a celabratory with the car.

Mine turned 36 five days ago. Not so much a celebration as it was a run out on the highway and then the first wash/wax of the season.

Rain expected today (Seattle, what's new?). If there's a break in the weather, I will definitely take her out for a little exercise.

My '74 Corvette B-Day is coming up. I did some research and it rolled off the line on June 29th, 1974.

5 days ago I was at the Portland swap meet. Didn't get a chance to take the 'vette out to wash or drive it when we got home Sunday.
