  • Camaro home from winter storage

    Went to the airport where the car is stored

    opened the hangar door

    removed the cover

    popped the hood

    Installed the battery

    Left leg Clutch in

    Turned the key

    It jumped to life on the first rotation of the starter

    as if it had run yesterday

    The sound of the LT1

    beating through headers and a Borla catback

    Clutch still in

    right arm First gear

    slowly move out onto the tarmac

    Back to neutral, let it warm up

    Then drive her home

    Welcome back, Friend.

    A short but great story. How is it that you have access to an airport hangar?

      My buddy owns an airplane and rents a T-Hangar for it.

            He needs to take a check ride with his flight instructor to get his license current. Otherwise we would of.

              There's no feeling like flying.

              I'm sure it's great to have the Camaro back.
