Took her out for the monthly warm up today. Boy Wisconson winters suck when you have a perfectly good vette in the garage. Got a cool pic though.

I warmed mine up today & buffed her body to make her feel good , it was nice to hear her warm growly p-u-r-r (Borlas) and feel her heat beneath my hands. Whoa. Too much. Gotta go stand in the snow !

It's been highs of about 15 for the last 3 weeks, looks like a warm up is on the way though! Cant wait for the snow to melt. I used to like winter until I got my dream ride.

Cant even get to the garage at the lake where the vette is sitting. Last time it was driven was in Novemeber, and it wasnt even me it was my son who parked it and stored it for me, I was way too busy with work and it was getting cold fast.
We managed to drive the mustang once in early january on a nice salt free day
Spring cant be here soon enough
