U mean it's a garage queen? My bad, that was wrong. It's a Z71 that's a Garage Queen in the winter?

Ya, this snow sucks. I got to go out in it today for the 1st time & get it sideways. I just love the 1st snow for doin that.
Tranny is comin out? I thought u already did shift kit? Or are there some other naggin issues?

don't hate!!! your damn right its a garage queen. well this last year it has been neglected greatly so in 09 i will be getting back on track... cleaning up the outside some, engine bay forsure along with all the motor goodies. time to push this 5.3 till it

as far as the shift kit, at the time i didn't have the money or the patients to tackle it. still not tackling it. it will be coming out to be touched by the hands of god (FLT)!!
