Back in the saddle

[Hrtbeat1]

Well over the weekend I went and bought a new to me Vette.

Its a 96 Collectors Edition, LT4, 6 speed, Z-51 with red interior. It drove like a dream on the 250 miles back home. I think I have a relapsing caase of perma-grin. Man ya gotta love that LT4 power.

Looks like Im all set for Cruisefest '06. Was afraid I wouldn't be attending ... not quite the same without a Vette, but thats taken care of now.

Congrats!
The Sebring Silver and Torch Red interior are a sharp combo. Having that LT4 up front motivating things along is a blast too!

Good For You Bro

After all you've been through, it's great to see you back in a vette. Best of luck to you, you certainly deserve it.

Congrats on the new C4
I get the same feeling every spring when the 89s come out of winter storage!

Thanks Rowdy

Guess I gotta figure out how to disable that ASR before we get to BG. Makes it tough to do a proper burn out.

Winter storage .... man that sux. I'd have to move. :L

I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again

Ridin' into town alone
By the light of the moon
I'm looking for ole' Sukie Jones
She crazy horse saloon
Barkeep gimme a drink
That's when she caught my eye
She turned to give me a wink
That'd make a grown man cry

I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back

Umm...come easy, go easy
Alright 'til the rising sun
I'm calling all the shots tonight
I'm like a loaded gun
Peelin' off my boots and chaps
I'm saddle sore
Four bits gets you time in the racks
I scream for more

Fools' gold out of their mines
The girls are soaking wet
No tongue's drier than mine
I'll come when I get back

I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm riding, I'm loading up my pistol
I'm riding, I really got a fistful
I'm riding, I'm shining up my saddle
I'm riding, this snake is gonna rattle

I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back
I'm back in the saddle again
I'm back

Ridin' high
Ridin' high
Ridin' high already

[JEFNLSA]

Congrats!!!

Hrtbeat1, with Bob's knowledge on the C4 & Vettes in general I bet you got one helluva well maintained car that has been gone through w/ a fine-tooth comb. Judging by your last car, I can only imagine what you have up your sleeve for this one.

Enjoy!
