That is sweet Carla! I used to have a 73 Z-28 with the 350, 4 on the floor...those were some healthy engines. I never lost a race!

CARLA · Post by **CARLA** » Fri Sep 19, 2008 9:17 pm

No better engine ever made that a 350. Still making them today. I'm still driving it and never lose a race either. :driving:

Working this weekend as usual

and visiting the FG. Hopefully things will settle down by next weekend:-6

Odie, your car is a TREASURE...as you know. It is beautiful and you look beautiful in it:-6 WOW...

I've always wanted a 1970 black convertable corvett with a black top. Guess this particular car brings back good memories. But, I could not affort it.

So, a friend recommended that I buy a Pontiac Solstice and I did. But, this one looks best in red:wah: and I love it....

The Pontiac Solstice was been my favorite car since it came out..........awesome!

I wondered if that is what your car is!

You know I had to come visit where you all have pics of cars. Love the wheels!

Last weekend of summer.......recuperating from the long drive home from the mountain vacation, ate out last night with friends, went to the flea market today, grilling burgers later, and dunno about tomorrow yet. I am looking forward to autumn.

I'll jump in the drivers seat of my PT cruiser and meet you all at the diner below.

Kathy Ellen · Post by **Kathy Ellen** » Sat Sep 20, 2008 3:21 pm

Oh Odie,

I wouldn't buy it with a stick...too much thinking. Originally it only sold with stick and then automatic....

I grew up driving sticks, so to me they are second nature, don't even need to think about it. That's the only downside to my SUV....they don't make them with a manual trans.

Ahhhhh thanks Ducky....I miss you. things here are too busy right now....Hoping I'll have more time next weekend to just chat. Right now I'm doing tons of things while posting on fg.

One day you and I will be sitting on the beach drinking Blue Lagoons and chatting up a storm:-6

Yeah, it's busy here too. Have hardly been on the FG since school started. Have to do the winter clothing thingy as it got cold suddenly. I do have to say one thing though, the nights have been splended sleep wise.

I always tell my daughter if you get stuck somewhere and somebody has stick shift and can't drive, you will be in luck. It's like riding a bike, you never forget.:wah:
