Angry Dashing Thru the Snow!

I was left with little choice. I just had to be at a very important activity at my university, both the professor and a VA representative would be there. I waiting on the "snow" car, but somehow a fitness class was more important than my scheduled activity and personal safety...not to mention the safety of my La Beastia and others. So with summer only tires and the winter driving skills acquired by birth in Western New York state, I set out. Just getting out of the driveway was a thrill/terror. Once I hit the very cold, snow peppered, street that had a slight incline, the real fun began. That 369 ft. lbs. of torque at the rear wheels/summer tires, provided less than optimal forward motion. I had to ask all the gods to deliver La Beastia and me safety to the university and home. I hope I never have to do that again!

hmmm let's see. Other than looking at it everyday as I leave for work, I actually jacked it up the other day, then spun the wheels/tires around to let it lay on another spot

I looked at mine while taking out the trash bin...

We have had 4 feet of snow in the last two weeks, with another foot predicted over the weekend... I may get to take the Mistress out by May...

I got do a little Summertime dreaming as I received my new set of American Muscle 17x9 chrome Bullitt wheels and Nitto 555 tires in the "mail" today (Thank you UPS!) and installed them on my car in the soft glow of the space-heater in my garage. The sun came out just long enough for me to pull it out and take a few pictures, then brought him back into his stall for a charge on the battery tender. Those wheels really make the Mustang look 100% better to me!

I stood there in the garage looking at the little beast. I really had to fight myself on taking her out for a drive. It is like early May outside today. Killing me. Just want to go for a drive...

In the honor of all you snow birds I cleaned it up, and took it for a drive in this wonderful sunny 64 degree weather. :-)

I haven't done crap with my Mustang for quite sometime now. I'm living vicariously through all you guys and gals who live in snow-free states.
