Out for a spin

The neighbors probably wonder what's so great about driving that old truck. I must have taken her out 5 times today. Had to mess with the carb a little bit. Take her up the road again and bring her back and tinker a little more. Maybe next week I'll take her out to the car wash just to show her off. She ain't perfect but she's all mine.
She runs a little better with the new distributer. Now I gotta get my kick down hooked up and maybe by the end of summer, a new stall torque converter. Can have some neck snapping fun then.
Who else had their toy out?

Does backing it out of the garage to clean the garage count?

Hey, If you had it out of the garage, That's close enough. At least you were enjoying the great outdoors with your toy.
With the price of gas, you can't take them too far anymore. Unless you're Donald Trump or somebody like that.
I'll be pushing Betty back out this weekend to wash and wax her. Might even pull the wheels off and clean them up. But I'de doubt I will do the wheels. That's a lot of work for this fella.

I washed up Eunice today, She looked so pretty I had to go for a little ride, she seemed a little constipated at first but by the time I got to the end of my rd she was running as smooth as a babys tuchas, sure was great, my local cruise nite starts Tues, can't wait!
