Default What a beautiful day

Just got a call from the driver who is delivering my 74 vet ( purchased from ED T) he will off load around noon. Yahoooo!!. Going to put the temp plates on it and drive all day and night. Well maybe I will stop to get something to eat.

Just had to tell someone.....

I was thinking what a nice day also:) The sun is heading north so today at 38 degrees north lattitude it's light enough that i don't even turn on my light for my 5:50 in the morning drive to work.

The bird were singing and not a cloud in the sky. Low 70's again today and I'm thinking about leaving work early and taking a Vette cruise somewhere. :seeya

That's a nice 74 vert that Ed sold you. Please don't get too much salt up inside it. She's a keeper.

Have fun !! :seeya

It will be on a strick no salt diet, or water for that matter. However, when the roads are dry and the sun is out, well lets just say, I will be smiling.

I have the camera ready!!

Ed, thanks for posting the pictures of the pick up. I will have to figure out how to post my own pictures.

I was going to go to Chicago this weekend for the Vet show/swap meet. I guess now I will stay home and look at my own..

Ed, you have to get to feeling better, Florida is calling!!!
