It was one of those evenings here in Maryland, featuring scattered/isolated thunderstorms. Every once in a while we would feel a sprinkle, but it never rained hard while I was there.

I didn't stay very long as the regular Chevelle crowd was not there.

The cruise moderator Jeff JUST took delivery of his newly sprayed '70 El Camino! When completed, it will be a twin to his red '70 Malibu.

I'm sharing a trailer with two C2 Vettes, a Porsche, and Lambo (in front of me) and some Mazda.

Garage is now filling up with boxes ready to be loaded on the moving van.

Here's a vid. I apologize for forgetting to turn the sound on.

That's all for tonight. VERY much looking forward to my Chevelle being delivered to my house in Peoria next Friday, 5/21. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cool.gif

[Bill Pritchard]

And I'm sure your Chevelle's sheet metal is looking forward to being caressed by this nice dry desert air! Won't be long now!!

[BlueSS454]

Sounds like someone will be making their inagurule appearance at the Pavillions cruise on 5/22 <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

[m22mike]

Good luck Rick, no more raking leaves and....err....ahh...I won't even go there now.
Waiting to see that cool 69 at the Pavillions... <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

Mike

[Xplantdad]

Neat pics Rick...

We're anxiously waiting for your Chevelle and for you and Claire to show up out here!

I don't know that the Chevelle will make it inaugural trip to Pavillions on that Saturday...as Rick and Claire have a MLB game calling out their name to be at!


That's okay...I'll be driving it while Rick is gone <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif

[CC Rider]

Yup. Watching a team that wins more games than the Orioles.

[CC Rider]

Had a great four days at our new home in Peoria! In a little over 20 days, we'll be living there permanently! <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cool.gif

Thanks Bruce for the D-back tickets! Had a great time hanging out with your brother and nephew. And Gary gave me his gnome!

My Chevelle arrived safe and sound at about 10am on Saturday. I sure was glad to see this truck pull up out front!

I planned to take the Chevelle for a ride, fill up the tank, and run down some nice Arizona roads. Lone Mountain Parkway, behind my house, is EXTREMELY straight ! But I was so busy I ended up just parking it in the garage.

[CC Rider]

Here is a very bad video of the unload. Yes, I forgot to press stop when I should have. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXjv36FVPL8

Bruce, I can't edit this video until I change it from a VOB file to an AVI or some other more recognizable file. I HATE this video camera!

[BlueSS454]

Nice Rick.

[Xplantdad]

Ya gotta love old video cameras...LOL

.VOB files suck...like I told you on the phone <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

[Bill Pritchard]

Look at all that empty space in the garage...soon to be filled up with lots of boxes full o' stuff!

[BlueSS454]

Wait wait wait...Your MD tags are still on the car. Where's the AZ tags?? <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

[Xplantdad]

Tom...shhh! Don't tell anyone <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif

[Postsedan]

Your Chevelle is gonna love all that Sunshine.
