. . . of my whole vette . . . all at once . . . for totally non-technical reasons, I snapped a few today. Contrary to popular belief , I will occassionally do things with the vette other than polish the undersides.

Took several long drives the past few weekends with Mrs. Patches. The weather has been phenomenal most of the time this fall/winter. Winter in Atlanta. Low 60's today. I love it.

Please, everyone, let's be safe out there this weekend whilst carrying out all the merry-making!

Happy New Year!

Daily driver in the background.

Not a side of my vette many people get to see - especially Mustang drivers.


Baby got back!

Hey Patches, very sweet looking ride! I can say that I don't think I've every seen your entire car. I'm hoping the weather is nice enough this weekend so the wife and I can take ours out for the New Year Celebrations.

Gorgeous, simply stunning!!!! One of these days Patches, I'll get to oogle at your vette in person. Its by far the most cleanest, most well taken care of vette on the forum. You could eat off of it (not that you'd let anyone do that).

Thanks for posting these pics!! Enjoy the great weather. I just took my vette out for a quick 1 mile drive. I hadn't driven it in a week thanks to all the snow that's been falling lately. Hopefully, it'll stay like this for a while.
