This was the cruise last night at a local A & W, which is only 1 1/2 blocks from my house.



Here, my co-pilot, my son Jacob, is sitting eating his food and having his rootbeer float.


The back side of the lot where all the regulars hang out after 8pm.

Looks like a fun time for you and your son. Sometimes I wish my son was younger so we would spend more time together at cruise ins.

I picked up some paint for the driveshaft stripes last Tuesday. Been sitting here for days thinking about all of the things I could be doing if I wasn't injured.

That has to suck. Last week was so hot and humid I couldn't get a lot done on mine. Sunday was supposed to be cooler and less humid. Spent the day cutting up a large, 12", tree branch that came down. The neighbor helped then we went over and cut down an apple tree in his yard spent that split. Needless to say, not much got done on the Chevelle. Today I'm pretty sore and tired from moving logs and dragging branches, another day that not much got done.

Today was a trip to Dooley's. I noticed a small vibration at 65mph. I also noticed that the steering wheel was a little off center. So this week I will be getting a front end alignment.
