It's been in the teens here lately, & the wind has been the nastiest for over a week. I'm not working on my cars since there's no heat in the garage, but I am bringing an 8-3/4" rear (to swap into my Scamp & toss the 7-1/4" one) to a shop in NJ to get it disassembled & checked out. I may have the sure grip installed, but not sure yet. Also bringing a 23 spline trans for my Road Runner to have that checked out. As far as I know both are okay, but they have been sitting around for years.

The bug is definitely around.

Surprisingly, the weather has been in the 70s here for the past couple of days.  Yesterday, I just drove around for an hour or so, enjoying the weather.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Especially if they have access to the internet.

The bug is definitely around. I was at my autobody shop where the Charger is until 11:00 PM last night, until the shop owner said he was going home - way beyond my bed time, installing the heater box and insulation trying get things done in a warm environment! The shop owner was working on a Corvette.

I took the 509 cam out weeks ago and still haven't started putting the 528 cam in.    I sent the intake out to get ceramic coated...  I thought it should be here by now but the brown truck drove past yesterday.  :P
I did a few house projects and waiting for the contractor guy to show up to start the bathroom.   I should really get  some insulation and a new door on the garage.

The last couple days felt worse than most of January  :-\

My kids left one of the downstairs windows open half the day yesterday ( :icon_smile_angry:), so there should be more heat coming your way soon. ;D

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)
