Default Another Cali Cruise

Well met SanDiego Paul at my place and first went to the Embarkidero, you can see the USS NIMITZ in the background.



Then we went to Coronado and got some pics in front of the historic Hotel Del


Paul this is my favorite.

Then after a few drinks we cruised back to my place to try the buffer on Paul's Vette. You can see the difference the buffer made on his and my T-bar.



Beautiful day, great cruise and happy to be a part of the .............

:cheers:

So.... that's what these things look like when they run and are not in pieces. :cheers:

Looks like it was definitely a beautiful day and the C-3's make the backgrounds you picked look even better.

Yahoooo! And it was not only a perrrrrfect day but a great ride back home with the tops off. Maybe one day my Vette will be "done" .... maybe one day it will be faster .... maybe one day it will be as nice to view as a show car ... maybe one day I'll paint it yellow.

Not just yellow you understand, but YELLOW!!!!!!! Like a Z ohhhh6 Man I love that new color! :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod: :hurray: :auto: :party:

Paul I stopped by at Discount Tire and David the manager was there. He promised the clutch job would be easy and the car would be stored well out of the way of other customers. I'll think it over since it does not involve getting rides back and forth and 5 blocks from the house versus 35 miles.

Great pics again Cali! nice weather and nice cars, what else do you need... As I have told you couple of times during this winter, I envy you! I hate to see people walking in t-shirts when in here you need all clothes you have and you are still cold... Oh well, maybe the summer is coming... :cheers:
