Appreciation!!
It's been a little rainy for the past week... of course that means the TEG as the ricers call it . . gets used more while the vette sits and sleeps nice n clean. I don't know if I am going to make it this winter not driving it. I intend to park it once it snows. ICK! 100 hp for the whole winter? :crazy: It's sure nice knowing that I can jump in to my 383 monster from a squirrel powered import hehe.
Thanks for the replies, glad to know I am not alone. :seeya :thumbs:

Re: Appreciation!! (Blighty Vette)
The 90 is a sweet model year and I love that cockpit and dash...but it's white and conventional (for you anyways). The 86 has the older digi-dash...but it should have aluminum heads if it was built late in the model year...and it's red :reddevil ... and it's exotic (LHD; for you anyways).
Manual shift or automatic? :seeya

Re: Appreciation!! (Southern Comfort)
In my neck of the woods, winter can be defined as the time when the Vette gets stored and the sleds come out. For those of you who have never tried it, the thrill of hitting a winding trail, driving right on the edge, or blasting across a frozen lake at over 100 MPH is much the same as challenging road course. Besides, you don't have to worry about radar guns!
