Looks like it just needs some summer air in the tires and you'll be good to go. Hope it doesn't need to much. I'll be changing my AC compressor next weekend if you want to come over and help?

Rick - you need some redline tires on the car. 
Seriously, good to see you back to posting and your car still looks amazing.

My transmission rebuild parts arrive tomorrow.
Finally getting mine fixed too.
Then a retune, fresh (not out of date) tires, emissions, then it sits in the garage again until I have time to drive it.

Hilarious times in the shop, I'm having to jack up the car much higher. It seems my jack stands have shrunk over the years since my belly doesn't fit under as easily. I also noticed the creeper is much farther down and very awkward trying to lay on it. My eyesight is much worse trying to focus on parts and fuel lines(which leaked on start up). So I'm done for the day and will go at it again in the morning.
