Is it the end times? I just got up and it is very bright out and there is a big ball of fire in the sky. Is it safe to be outside? Is the Zombie apocalypse coming?

My Vette was sitting in the garage, nice and cozy and clean. Washed it, and put it away before the holidays, and then left it sitting so I wouldn't get her all dirty from the rain and wet roads.

So I finally couldn't take it, and took it to work the other day thinking "I need to get the battery charged up, and who knows when we'll have sun again?".

And now this! Damn PNW weather!

We had some things to do yesterday but it was so nice that we bailed after doing about half of it and took the car out for a while. Felt good.

I sure did, I also painted my exhaust and decided that the square tips are goners, I spent about 30 minutes getting them off the car painted them and they still look like crap. I am ordering a muffler delete kit sometime this month.
