I am so glad to hear that the Tornado's didn't get you guys up near Flint. It sure seems that you guys have been hit hard this year with some crazy weather. I am only, what, about 50 miles south of you and we have only had some wind problems.

Sounds like Baker's should be a popular place this Saturday. If I get a chance to clean up my car I would love to head out that way. What time does the show start ?

It was good seeing you Brian at the Meet and Greet at the Michigan Fbody show at Bakers on Saturday, I tried to get Hank to come up there since he is only 5 miles away but you know how busy things get when you are retired...ha

Tony, the Camaro took 3rd place in the 2nd generation Fbody class division...I feel that it did not get first place because of the clock not working.

Sorry, I thought the meet was on Sunday. Already had other plans on Saturday and I was a lot farther than 5 minutes away. Congrats on 3rd place, that's pretty damn good.

Tony, please buy him an f'in clock, I'm tired of hearing about it. Maybe we can start up a collection here to buy Ric a clock. Never mind, probably a waste of time, I'm sure he'll find something else to bitch about, like the burnout light bulbs. I bet the brake pads are worn down, probably needs new spark plugs, there was dust on the dashboard.

You know Ric, been driving his Chevelle for years with no trim rings on his SS wheels but that damn clock is just killing him.

It is always the little things, like the clock, that make all the difference when it comes to car shows.

Congrats Tony. Sorry I missed the show, had to be here for my daughter.

It was great to see you again too Ric! Now I know why you were late for the show! If it makes you feel any better, the clock in my old Chevelle didn't work either, but I told the guy that bought it.........AS IS no warranty.

Damn Tony I don't want to be the cause of any health issues know what health nut you are. During your next yoga session just let all the bad vibes about the Camaro just exit your mind.

It's not the clock itself, it's tearing the dash apart that has never been molested to take the clock out to get rebuilt....my luck I'll break something doing it.

No trim rings is a choice as I like the way they look with out them plus it bugs you which is a bonus....plus mine have a couple dents.

Thanks for understanding on me being late that clock runs my life. I just figured the car was only 2,000 over warranty miles that "Tony's fine car uporium" would cover it, I guess the sign over desk that states "If you don't like it you can kiss my ASS" should have been a clue on how warranty is covered. See you at the Camaro Superfest in July.

Tony, is there a cruise in Davidson today that you are going to? Leslie is in Canada on business and was thinking of driving out there tonight if you are going to be around.

Ric, What happened to the Chevelle? You go and buy a Camaro with a broken clock and now the Chevelle isn't good enough.

There is a small cruise at Johns Pizzaria tonight. I don't go there. They burned my stromboli. Made me mad. The downtown cruise is at VG's store for the rest of the year. It's at the corner of Davison Rd and Gale Rd. Fridays.
