Re: 7th Annual Michigan FBody Meet & Greet 2011

Where has the time gone? I can't believe it's already half way through April and we've only had a few good cruising days so far. Usually by March we're hanging out on Woodward... not this year! Get your registrations in before the show so you can arrive and whiz through the check-in tent.

PS - I hear a certain chief engineer for the Camaro is bringing a surprise to the show

Last year we had much more good weather by now. I didn't take the winter tires off the Camaro until last weekend, where last year it was March.

Oh I'm curious as to this surprise. He brought the 2011 model last year and I got to see the HUD first hand.

Re: 7th Annual Michigan FBody Meet & Greet 2011

Yeah I hear ya - I'm surprised how cold it's been this year. My wife and I were in Ft Lauderdale for our honeymoon and it was unusually warm -- they were already having summer-like temps while here in MI it's unusually cold. Can't wait for some 70's!!

As for the surprise, I'm curious too but I'm sure it'll be cool whatever it is.

Re: 7th Annual Michigan FBody Meet & Greet 2011

I've had mine insured since April 1st, drove it around a handful of times. I finally had the time to trace down my electrical gremlin I've been dealing with -- turns out the wiring harness for the PIAA fog lights was the problem. Even though the foglight switch was disconnected and the harness wasn't plugged into the fog lights themselves, somehow the relay was being energized and thus was draining my battery within 2 days of sitting. It's nice to be able to hop in the car anytime and drive now instead of always having to plan a day or two ahead to put the trickle charger on the battery.

Heck we've been driving the 'vette for two weeks. But it won't be moving today with all the snow on the ground this morning.

Re: 7th Annual Michigan FBody Meet & Greet 2011

Mine's got the engine on the engine stand. I hit a showstopper over the weekend as the new oil pan won's clear the ministarter when I try to bolt on the hooker supercomps. Time to do some more research. If I can get this thing running again before the meet & greet, I'd like to bring it.

{edit} Crisis averted. Proform P/N 66258 comes to the rescue! {/edit}
