Where did you and your car go today

Nice. But, you're going to need a bigger garage.
The house was already started when I bought it. It was going to be a display house. It was to late to add a third bay and I really liked the lot. I could have built two lots down and added everything they put in this one, but my condo I own now forced me down to a two car garage already. I had a four car attached garage years ago, then went down to three car oversized, then the two, so I'm already down to this working. I'm down to two cars, from four and It's all I need at this point, but, it would have been nice. It backs up to a lake, I like the view of the fountain and lights in the lake. The older I get, the more I realize there are things I just don't need.
 
Taking down my signs in my garage for the move and my car was in the driveway, so I stopped and went for a cruise. Warm and sunny!!

Actually those are nice pictures!! When I bought my coronet the car was perfect when I picked it up. The sky was getting black around us and he said leave it here and pick it up later. This was a 60 mile drive to his house and I thought, no way It's going home now. We got maybe 6 miles out of town and it started raining. Then it started raining so hard you couldn't drive over 20 mph and then it started with pea sized hail. I looked at my wife and she was freaked out. 6 miles of hail and a total of 20 something miles of the worst rain I have ever driven in. Not one bridge to hide under either. Believe it or not the rain stopped as fast as it started and the road ahead was bone dry. Afraid to stop and look I drove the remaining 20 miles or so home. When we got home, we got out and walked around the car, it was perfectly clean and dry. It rained so hard there was no dirt on the street and it stopped so fast there was no mist off the street to get it dirty and most importantly, no hail damage. That was one of the strangest things i've seen. I got real lucky!!
 
Drove around before the rain starts today.
Christmas is the BEST day to drive around here!

Our neighbor one mile away bought this 72 charger hardtop new. He never drove over 50. In the late 80s we would pass him every morning to high school. 20 years ago we bought if from the family. They drove it 278,000 miles with nothing done to the engine. My brother and I drove it one mile twenty plus years ago. Floored it, broke the motor mount, fan went through the shroud, muffler fell off and the timing chain broke.
We parked it and finally pulled the 318 last weekend..considering dropping in a 700hp 440. Only makes sense to make up for all those 50mph miles:bananadance:

That's what it will be like if you missed the rapture.
 
Ventured out in the fog today, visited my parents house. Got some mud on the fenders and quarters from the crappy roads :thumbsup:

I would've had a heart attack, especially in a black unit like that one...
Yeah, I was pretty **** about it in the beginning. Now, not so much. Figured might as well enjoy it and have fun with it. Besides, it got rained on last time we were out and needs a good buffing and wax this coming spring anyways. Also needs a thorough vacuuming inside, 4 young kids make a mess of the carpet and everything else when they have snacks.
