    Fired up the hot rod!
    « on: January 23, 2011 - 09:21:31 AM »
    Went out to the garage and started up the hot rod yesterday.  First time in several months.  Little choke and a little throttle and she fired right up. :grinyes:  Given how cold it is I was pretty impressed.

    Let her warm up and idle a way for a bit.

    Man I forgot how much I love the sound of my car.   :biggrin: Sure helps witht eh winter blues!

    I also put it up on jack stands while I was at it in preparation for a few winter projects.

    Just thought I would share.

    Ok, I guess you're excused.......................... this time.
    But this type of behavior cannot and will not be tolerated in the future  :villagers:

    That type of ignorance on my part stems from the jealousy I have that you can enjoy your car and I cannot enjoy mine :rofl: :walkaway:

    J/K  :lol:
     Glad you were able to get out there and have some fun with your son. Good stuff  :cheers:

    Sometimes, it gets down into the 60's over here. The other day, I had to roll up my window.

    If it makes you feel any better, I hope to retire to someplace cold someday like Idaho and play with my cars all day but I know it gonna kill me to not drive em for months at a time during winter.
