We pushed it home last week, since we'd had a break in the weather and a rainstorm to wash the salt off the roads. Of course that lasted 2 days and we got a boatload of snow over the weekend, but that's melting. Still salty though.

At least it's easier to drool on it here. Also threw some more vintage stickers in the windows. I can't afford to do the big stuff right now so I like doing small things that make me feel like I'm getting something accomplished.

Also, a very nerdy piece of trivia. The door lock knobs. I was looking through old HRM issues (They've got em all online now if you have MotorTrend+) and I noticed an ad for them at a place called Midwest Auto Specialties. MAS had a Lakewood Ohio location less than a mile from what was Fairchild Chevrolet (where this car was sold new) in 1968. So these knobs have probably been on the car for its' whole life, and I wouldn't be surprised if the tach went on at the same ish time. Hell, maybe the C427X came from there too- I know the 454 in it is engine number 5 according to the fellow who owned the car in the mid 80s, but whose to say when the intake went on or if it bounced between every motor the car has ever had.
