Granted it was just out into the garage, but its the first time its moved under its own power in a long time. I took some new pics of it too. and in case anyone is wondering, No, I don't care that my plates are not covered.

I see from your uncovered plates that you're a Minnesotan.  Minneapolis here.

The car looks pretty good.  Mine moved under its own power for the first time in a long time earlier this year, and it's a great feeling.

That is a beautiful 3rd gen and it must feel great to have it move by itself!

That's the nastiest 3rd gen I've ever seen, black on black is the bomb. Steelies are tits and the plate could easily live on my car too.  :2thumbs:

:iagree: Looks great! :drool5:
Way back when, there was a BF Goodrich ad with a '69 (if I recall) that had a nicely done T/A scoop on it...it looked fantastic!

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. :)

now that the msd box is in it runs quite well. Apparently according to my wife and her friend, when I rev it in the garage the pictures on the basement walls rattle and move away from the wall. I'd say that's successful.

sorry I have a strange sense of humor. I was making a dig on those 2nd gen guys we have on here who won't ever own anything else.

And yes I'm thinking about adding a chin spoiler.
