Default I feel like a kid in a candy store!!

So I decided to go pick-up my Bonneville today from storage to go wash her since I don't have a car cover and she'* a bit dusty. It'* been over a month now. Man-o-man, I didn't realize just how much I missed my baby. I got on it and couldn't stop smiling

Oh, I know that feeling. The PA was sitting in the driveway for almost two months because of the trans. I got it back from INTENSE three weeks ago, and I've been driving myself broke since...

Hell, I get the same feeling when I finally get the seats adjusted right again after I have to move the seat.

I know the feeling, I got my Intense transmission in and I was all smiles once I hit the road. Then 1 1/2 hours later I spun a bearing in my new motor .

Lol yeah yeah. The nice thing is if we get this house that will save me $35 a month for storage on the Bonneville, and whenever I get the itch for boost, it'll be right in my garage

It was funny though, I got in the car, took a big wiff, said aaaaaah....started driving and was like ooooooooo! Gosh my t-bird is slow I didn't wanna take her back for hibernation, but I knew I had to. I've put a whopping 27 miles on the car since September 17th lol.
