.

It just wouldn't be right to go another month without giving some credit to Alex and his Bluebastard. If not one of the founding members of our club, he is certainly a senior member (since he was around when I joined). Before his move to warmer climates, and his ultimate return to Rochester, Alex was also the proprietor of "Big Al's GTP Garage". Many a pulley was changed there. Ah, the memories, the memories... Hey Alex, when can we expect the return of Big Al's GTP Garage?

Aw shucks...that's me! Very Happy I forgot to get you the bigger pic though. Ah well.

Big Al's GTP Garage is semi-operational. I just need to get my house/yard in order. Then, I hope to host a mini mod-day (driveway is small) at "Da Brown".

hmmm...What's with all the colors in my things' nicknames?... You don't even want to know who 'BlackInSize' is.... Razz

Hey man...you got to know those fumes best...being locked in your trunk!...haha! Very Happy

Mike, I named my house "Da Brown" (because of the brown trim..hehe). Just noticed that both my car and house have colors in their nicks.

I've got a ton of maintenance to do, especially in the rear suspension. Been wranging with PFYC to get replacements for my Konis. Once that's all set, I'd like to get some of the old-timers together for a BBQ.

Cool! Looking forward to it!

We should make it a goal to drag Rick and Dermody over, guilt Pat and Barton into coming, find Jordan... etc.
