It's finally spring here in Oslo, Norway! Took my 'cuda out of hibernation today and drove it home. Man that was sweet. Have missed her since i put here in storage in October.

It was nice enough to take the car out for a cruise yesterday here in Maryland, but I like to wait a few rains after the last snow fall for all of the salt to get washed off of the road.

Hey 6pak, I can't wait for you to get your car out as well!  That is a nice car!  I suspose I could roll my shell out into the sun just for fun.  My wife commented about all the muscle cars she saw on her way home the other day when it was nice out.  She asked when I was going to finish mine.  I got the bleeding to stop coming out of my ears, but I'm afraid that there may be permenent damage.

Its funny how it just happens to be where you live when you can take your car out and really enjoy. My car has no a/c so I love taking it out in the Winter (I live in Miami). The summer is so incrediably hot that I don't take it out much. And when I do I usually only take it out at night (bearly tolerable).

  Here in Idaho it was 75* here Sat. Took the car out for a nice long cruise--about 150 miles. First real test of a nice long road trip where I feel the car was road worthy enough to make it. Have got to put some tunes back in the car before the next one.    :ylsuper:  Happyness is bug splatter on the windshield!!!!

I feel your pain Kingtroll. Black car, black interior, no A/C can be pretty unbearable when it's 100* out. Last summer I had mine out when Ameri-cruise was in town, but it was so hot that after one lap down town, both the car and I were over heating. So I just parked and watched everybody else drive around.
