hey I'm in Sherwood, your car wouldn't happen to have Torque thrust II's would it?? If so I've seen it and it is very nice, I followed it into the Target\Red Robin Parking lot.

My car is once again apart in the garage, hopefully it will be done by March!

Hey, welcome to the forums and congrats on your purchase. I work/live/go to school between Portland and Corvallis, so I'm pretty much all over the north half of the state. There are a few of us here but we don't get together much. Welcome again.

Well that means there are two Pewter WS6's in the Sherwood\Newburg area Funny because there is another Pewter Hardtop SS in the area as well, actually there are alot of F-bodies around but the only one I've met is a guy with a black transam with cam and headers.

I'll give Mike a call and arrange dinner, I could use a nice night out myself at this point!

I'm not doing anything major just a bunch of little stuff.

Bought some Koni SA and need to install them, new TA hardware and moving the arm to the holes so it is closer to the driveshaft. Make some room with the hammer.

I need to finish the stereo install and clean up interior, change the belt and tensioner, but the support bar back in the bumper and windshield washer etc. Redo the exaust clamps and adjust them, it leaks a bit and hits the floor

Etc etc alot of little stuff that is very hard to get excited about. I did get some new aluminum autovation pedals for xmas though

If you see a dude roll up in a light Pewter Yukon on 22's trying to say "hi" don't freak out

I'll hopefully be driving the SS daily this spring-summer....
