Very nice here today also.

Engine out and in a million pieces. Front suspension on the due to come out pretty soon. Plus I am working back to back outages at two power plants starting Feb 24 until Apr 10. 7days 12 hours. Should help very nicely with the corvette.

You're lucky, the spring will be sooner than us here, in the North country. Should be about 5 degres tonight and my vette is all appart for painting. I'll have to wait till the end of April to do a ride. More time to work on the engine. :D
