Default Cleaned the baby today!!

I was home from college for the weekend so I took the precious baby out of the garage and gave her a good bath today. I was standing there, looking at her and it seemed almost as if she was sad cause I couldn't take her out for a drive (am i pathedic?). 2 more weeks until shes back insured!! Has anyone else taken out their baby lately? There's been a couple goood days for cruising last week, and thursday its supposed to be 60 here

You know I was out
Had to pick a path thogh cause all the salt. Short trip - no wash job for mine
Looks like hell too.
On the way home after the work I'll detail it up
It's good to just hear them run in our frozen tundra of a climate!
Enjoy the shiny car....

I keep mine insured all year because I don't want to miss a nice day of driving. I was over noyzee's yesterday and waxed it with the help of turbo6 and cleaned it up all nice. Sucks it's gonna rain and i'm too lazy to put the cover back on it. Oh well it was nice driving

Summer nat's are the first weekend of july, actualy I think it starts on the 30th of June. It's in worcester mass. go to www. summernationals.com Can get all the info there.

I'm gonna go, should have my car parked with thte CTFBA, wherever they get a spot this year. Good time, just make sure that you don't parkt oo close to the burnout's... that smoke will ruin a clean car in a hurry... you'l be picking rubber bits out of the interior too for a month if you leave a window open....... my buddy made that mistake last year

Oh, my car's in the garage right now... no driving, just waxing for the next week or so.
