    So today the GT6 came home. She's not been apart of my life since Oct 2009.

    On the drive home the fuel pump paused. Pulled over grabbed my tire iron and whacked it.

    Still feels great. I feel whole again.

    The records show the car landed in Montreal back in 68, but she lived a hard life. Salt was no friend.

    From what I can tell she moved to Ontario in the 80's and then I bought her 9 years ago.

    Man, I forgot how small GT6s are! The Fiat really dwarfs it in that last photo.

    My Spitfire friend said the same thing last night.

    It is a big car for sure. That cage of mine does not help either.

    But she's also on casters

    So tonights goal is to make the garage functional.

    Need to set up my work benches, move some boxes out and put stuff away.

    I have a race planned for late Sept so the FIAT needs some work.

    The starter contacts are bad and caused me grief back in June.

    Plus need to change fluids, hang the exhaust and do a check over. Other wise rock and roll.
