The Time is Now......
The time is now to really get into the ZR-1 and my other Vette projects. And I will be able to do that in 4 months and 3 days as I am retiring on July 9. After 40 years, 8 months with one company and driving just over 1 million miles OTR in that time, it is time to call it quits.
I will now be able to accomplish the following without any time restrictions what-so-ever.......this will be a very good feeling.... My current "Bucket List" 1- learn more about the LT5 by reading all of Cliff's threads & posts. 2- learn how to use my Tech 1 and understand all of the parameters regarding the LT5 and everything pertaining to the C4. 3- have reading time everyday with all of the Heart Of The Beast mags now that I will have the time to do so. 4- continue paint correction on the ZR-1 to make it as best as possible, keeping it as a true survivor. 5- change all of the fluids and install the Hurst shifter. 6- attend some WAZOO gatherings in the future. 7- get the 74 back together this year. 8- finish up the 82 and get it ready for a possible sale. 9- make sure that I drive at least one Vette every possible day that I can. 10- although this is listed last, it is the most important and that is to enjoy more time with my wife, our daughter, son-in-law and our grandsons and the grand-dog. To say I can't wait is an understatement.....I am looking very forward to this time in my life. Everyday is one day closer......... Tom
