    What a DRONE!

    Since we put on the B&B's way back in '06, I've read about the dreaded "drone" that some say they experience. Never happened.....until yesterday! Star & I were headed back from Homestead (visiting her son) and decided to come back the scenic way; up SR-27. Up ahead were a couple on their two...

    Water in battery?

    In an addition to my post about instrument lights.....When I took the battery back to AutoZone it was under the 3-year replacement warrantee so I got a free one. I asked the guy to test it just to make sure it was the battery and not my charging system. It failed. He asked me if I ever...

    C5 Instrument panel lights?

    Had to replace a three year old battery and noticed when we left for a car show yesterday (in the garage) that when I opened the door the panel lights didn't come on. Thought it was old age and didn't think much of it. The show lasted after dark and when we got in the car they didn't come on...

    Mecum Auction

    Star & I were fortunate to have been two of the lucky drivers for this great auction. I made up a video of the show but don't know how to post it. Anybody help? I know how to post pics but a video? :shrug01:

    Ecklers

    So I go and register.....There is supposed to be an attachment with a letter from Eckler's telling me that "due to hard times", they cancelled! I have no idea what happened to my attachment. Rich?

    Auto bailout

    All this talk about bailing out the automakers got me to thinking. Why do we need so many models and for that matter, automakers that make the same thing? Take for example, GMC; aren't these just fancied up Chevy's? Do away with the whole division! If you want a fancier Chevy Suburban go to...

    "Garden Party" still open!

    Due to the economy, Bush, Obama or whatever, the registrations for the "Garden Party" are lagging. Therefore, we will accept "walk-ins" until Sunday AM up to 8:30. If you have been "on the fence" about going to Cypress Gardens to see the Drifters and Coasters and of course attending the show...

    The economy is doing great!

    Got a tempting flyer from our local Suzuki dealer and with nothing better to do this afternoon, thought we would go in and see what they had to offer. We thought, what the heck if the price is right we would do our part to help "stimulate" the economy. First of all we were welcomed with a...

    Flat Tire @*#$%@

    A few weeks ago I posted about what a great deal I got on my new "non" runflat tires and what a shrewd consumer I was. With the great savings and much quietier ride and lets face it, when was the last time you had a flat tire? How about yesterday?!?! :banghead: Normally, Star and I go to the...

    New Rubber

    A few months back I decided we needed new tires for the '03 and I started doing some research. Goodyear runflats came on the car but the question was, do I want to spend that kind of money especially being retired? Club members, forum posts and other sources leaned me toward a "regular" tire...

    Wheel polisher?

    I'm getting ready to put on new tires and wanted to get the wheels polished prior to doing so. Several months back someone gave me the name of a shop in Tampa, on Anderson Road (just south of Waters) and I forgot it. Does anyone out there know of this place?

    Shirts

    As y'all know almost everyone putting on a car show gives away a t-shirt or a polo shirt. I don't know about you guys but my closet is getting full of shirts I'll probably never wear. Does the offer of a free shirt intice you to that event or would you go anyway? I'm thinking if one needs an...

    North Mississippi Corvette Club

    Got a surprise in the mail today! My check back! I'd completely forgotten that a few months ago I sent in $100 for a 650 in 1 chance on a Corvette. The club (see header) promised that if they didn't sell all 650 you would get your money back. Evidently they didn't and I got my check back...

    Couldn't get it up!!!

    Having a real problem getting it up this morning! The site that is...I know my computer is old (going on 4) but 5 minutes to pull up the site and an average of 3 minutes to switch threads? WTF is going on? Is it me or is the site having problems? :shrug01:

    Parking at Shows

    I noticed in another post that someone suggested parking by class rather than combining those arriving by "clubs". Due to the "discussions" regarding voting by People's Choice, Bay Area is toying with the idea of going to Judging classes as some of the shows do. I've been doing this for over...

    Pictures?

    I guess I'm brain dead. How do you post pics? I don't do it enough and have to re-train myself. I know you go into manage attachments and hit browse and choose your pic and hit upload. Nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?
