Default Fever setting in

Even though we are in vacation with the kids all I think about is getting home and cleaning up the car. A couple more days and home bound. Can't wait to get in the garage and crawl around over and under. I thought I had a fishing bug but damn this car is getting me!!!

Yeah…..Corvettes tend to do this to people. C3s are amongst the worst. I would recommend not fighting the "Corvette Fever" ….just give in while you are ahead. You will be doing something "important", not fun, but ..important and all you will care about is getting home to take the cover off, run your fingers along her body, and listening to the symphony of the exhaust as you are going through those gears.




Yeah man,….. welcome to the club.

Oh yeah. My wife just smiles and laughs. She knows where my nights will be spent, the garage.

Well the only way those nights could be better is if your wife was with you while you were tending to your 74.
