I like to see 40 days & 40 nites of rain to wash away the salt before I`ll take the cars out
Sweepers are out and they were washing the street a few blocks from home when I came home this afternoon. Actually isn't much sand on the street this year. Should be good to go for the weekend.
started mine today for the first time in about 4 months. Needs a new battery but i jumped it and it fired up the third try. If its nice tomorrow i can take off the headers and put the rams horns back on. Anybody want some headers?
Street Sweepers were in town yesterday.They must have taken away 5 township dump truck loads & theres still salt & sand on the streets after they finished. Think the sweepers are worn out ,as they are "really" old that the contract out company has!!! Thought it was a bit early to do this, especially if we get another storm!!! I too will wait for a few good rains, too wash the roads. Sign that spring is "REALLY" almost, could be, maybe Here

I am curious as to why? I dont need headers, but wondered why you dont want them on anymore?

yes they are Jonathan. They are for a x-frame car as they flare out to clear the frame. With my car lowered they sit too low and i dont feel like ripping them off the first good bump i hit!! LOL! $100 for them, they are hedman headers for small block chev.
...c'mon spring! I am chomping at the bit too. I feel the need for speed. Still a lot of sand/salt on the roads here. I took the interceptor out for a test drive, it will be on the road in a few days as a daily driver. I never exceeded 50 kmh but the rear wheels sure did! I enjoyed the excess power. It should be a couple more weeks for the Beaumont. Most of my free time will be spent on making the firetruck functional as a car mover. Bring on the sun!
Going out tonight to get the front seats out of the GTO so I can get the covers and foam installed. Still a pile of crap on the roads out here, probably a good month or better before it comes out of storage.
