First C8 I've ever put on the lift. At least it didn't fall off of it (weight distribution is different on these).  😁.

What are you up to now?  I know that’s not your car. Or is it? Hmmm

Not mine, if it was, it'd be black.

Owner wanted some work done to the front air intakes. I mist coated the heat exchangers black, and installed some black honeycomb mesh pieces in there also (matched the mesh on the rest of the car). Those aluminum exchangers just stood out too much. There's about 40 screws to remove, to get access to those things, lol

Then went to his in-laws to look at a '68 RS vert Camaro he wants me to go thru. Sat for a few years, F-in-Law passed away, etc. Car is going to his wife, wants it safe for a summer cruiser.

Told him it'll have to be after another 69 Z/28 that's coming soon, to have a few things done to it.

Still eating the chips, just spending more time on the bicycle trying to work some of it off.

Forgot that I did some much needed work to the motorcycles last week too. Everything pretty much got neglected when I started tearing the Monte apart early 2019, then the Camaro after that.

Made a platform for the lift years ago to get the bikes up in the air, which made it easier to work on them. Changed the antifreeze, brake fluid, oil+filter & cleaned and polished both of them. That took a couple of long days to get them apart, serviced, cleaned and then put back together.

Even managed to clean up one of the 'foreign' cars, as Steve would say 😁.

Holy Moly Joe!!  I agree with Dennis, i can't even say anything i am thinking about... where is Glen when you need him!

Initially, Rob's post said something about not seeing any 'bootie' on the bikes, or some type of spelling like that. I figured he was hoping for some pics of my GF on the bike, so I posted one :rofl:

Later, he edited his post, and also the 'quote' that I had used, from his post. Apparently, it was a typo.

WHO, ME!!!!    Yes, I had a typo, I am not perfect.  I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.
