I have to live with her and her mom.
She is really a daddy's girl. She waits for me by the window. Once I get home she follows me around the house and she wont sleep unless I'm in the room.

I don't even like me that much.

A CF forum buddy came over and helped me fix the garage door then we went for a ride and made a video. It still has a bad shift solenoid so I went easy on it.

I will have to fix it, and likely will upgrade the entire valve train.

No, if I would like a LS, I would buy a C5Z or C6Z. I'm looking at a 2010 Z06. Nothing official yet. If I buy this monster, the A/C Cobra will have to wait.

Chaos, I posted pictures of the labor day trip on channel 2

Hope you get it fixed. Rode in an '08 ZO6 with my dad, one hell of a car.
