...first drive of the year post?

The only good thing about having to store your Vette for half the year is how good it feels to finally take that first drive of the season. Once again, after 6 months of storage, all I did was connect the battery, adjust tire pressure, and drive. Performed flawlessly, just like I had driven it yesterday. Gotta love a small block Chevy!

Nice ride, and enjoy the summer, it will be short before you know it. You can move to Florida and drive it all year round.

It was a long winter, but last year it was early May before the snow stopped for good.
