Default From one white cursed car to another

First ever Utah meet was a success. 3 Bonneville'* were present. Every BC member from both Idaho and Utah was present. Yep, all 2 of us. No photos from the meet since the majority of the time was spent ripping apart a Bonneville in tripple freakin digit temperatures



SSE Motorhead'* Car may be totaled beyond reasonable repair but some of it will live on in my silver car and my former white car. Someone wanted to cut the front end off the car with a torch but I figured the coolant level sensor would not be worth removing the front end to get to.

You guys drive a decent way...have a meet and DIDN"T take pictures?

I'm wondering if that article said Arizona and Utah, but meant Utah and Idaho...

103.7*F. But it was a "dry" heat. (Inside joke for those of us in the desert west)

Someone did finally break out the torch and cut the composite bumper off the car, and managed to do it without lighting his hair on fire.

It was too hot to pose for pictures, although Mrs SSEM prolly would have done it had she not been on a date with SSEM'* credit card. I should have given Hans the parts he needed then had him stop at the mall and give them a sack of money - that'* where it went anyway.
