Beautiful Day in the Mountains! Took the t-tops off and went for a ride on the Parkway. Went all the way to Grandfather Mountain. Lots of nice cars out.
NL was driving....went through some tunnels,
and of course he "gunned" it as we went through. lol When we came out of one of the tunnels there was a long paved area that ran several hundred yards along the road for a lookout site. There was about 20 people or so parked there. They ALL had turned and was looking our way as we came around the curve. Several had thumbs up in the air as we when by, lots of waves and shouts of approval. lol Fun, fun day. lol got to love the Mountains and bad cars!

lol sounds like fun. I hear ya on the beautifull day, unfortunately we spent it swapping brakes from one car to the other. Didn't get a chance to do the rears so Kelly's new car now has red front calipers and cross drilled/slotted rotors on the front. Also we washed the car, painted a few things and armoralled the interior. I think the car is too loud for her now so we may look at putting something different on for the exhaust. Possibly a stock catback for now while she's driving the car then when these houses sell and we get her into what she want's I'll put it back on

We got the SS out for the first time in six months and headed down to Lake Lure. Never made it up to Asheville. Third gear is still gone, and don't put it in fourth to deep or you won't get it back out. Going to start pulling the tranny out this weekend so I can finally get it running right. Though the car ran good and attracted alot of attention, which we all like 
Its covered in polen now. That **** is to nasty.
