Default A few Springtime pics

Finally had a nice day here in NJ to get the Vette out..I thought the road salt was never gonna wash away...Gave it a quick wash and took a drive for the first time in 4 months..Felt good😄

^^^^^Don't dare say that word^^^^...Thought I was gonna get it out the last week of Feb and got bombed with a Snowstorm the first week of March...Snow was gone in 3-5 days but the salt takes weeks to get washed away...I hate snow and I hate NJ...

The wheels are deep dish OE 18X10 front w 265/35/18 and 19x11 rear with 285/35/19....
