I can't fill up down there without people coming over to talk, (they love the old Bow tie). I have met so many great people, spoken with hot Moms in parking lots who have daughters who "want a Camaro when they graduate from college" - it's just great fun. Yes, I will do some very limited racing when challanged, (as I often am), but chicken out when I get over 90 MPH; just too old to go to jail and lose my CPL. It has been a fun ride and I hate seeing it sitting in my garage during these cold messy days! It needs to be driven!
Hearing a lot of similar stories
Welcome to the old fart thread
