I looked at mine in the garage as I was leaving for work this AM. I need to find a day to put it away for the winter which includes: wash, wax, fill tank, add Sea-Foam, rearrange garage, attach Battery Tender and finally place the cover on "oh so gently". God, this time of the year sucks...

Was finally able to wash about 2.5 weeks of road grime off the car (water issues here) and installed the track wheels to make sure the 71Rs are still good to go for later this year.

And since I had to bring something to work for a co-worker, I actually drove today. (I also wanted to be cool with my 71Rs like this GTR)

I've done all of the above ( sea foam & battery tender too ) plus put on blocks, removed tires & wheels and wiped down the under body & suspension !
I've got about 20hrs in to it

While not today, dragonbreath and I returned from our second Tougefest Sunday. It's nice having an excuse to get up to Fontana Village every six months or so. Once a year for ZDayZ just isn't enough. We did A LOT of driving and there are so many good, fun roads up there. Plus, the area is even more beautiful in the fall because of the leaves turning color.

I gently took off her fronts, washed the most sensitive fragment that made her breath with ecstacy, and lit up her front.

Removed the bumper, washed my CAI filter, and replaced a blown drl

all this talk of putting the z away for the winter is depressing. since we have 3 more cars than garage doors, 2 have been out on the road all year. at least until nov 15, when the town puts a parking ban in effect. no vehicles on the streets from midnite to 6 am. since my son owns 2 of the vehicles (trucks) he gave me a suggestion to store my z for the winter and we can park the 3 extra vehicles on that side of the drive way. i said, "what!? and not drive my z during the winter? sorry, no way!" we get about 4-5 feet of snow each winter but i still drive it. i couldn't possibly not driver it for 5 straight months.
