Chrome and Ice Car Show - Feb. 8-10, 2019
stratman replied to Frosty's topic in Great Lakes's Discussion
Great pictures, Frosty! -
I am totally blown away! That is a lot of work (very skilled work!) to get done by one person in such a short period of time. You are incredible and I look forward to every new video installment.

Those are three of my favorites to hear during Christmas time, Frosty. I enjoy a good cover also...

Nice return to the Christmas of ‘64... Thanks Slipjoint!

New Shoes for Lucy
stratman replied to Frosty's topic in Pontiac Suspension, Brakes, Rims & Tires Dicussion/Questions
My You are probably regretting asking our opinions on what wheels to get, but I'm just sure you have been anxiously waiting to hear what I think, lol! I took this picture probably 4 or 5 years ago at a Pontiac show. I wish I had taken a picture that shows the wheels better, but they are 17" or 18" interpretation of the Honeycomb wheel. Being an old fart (Get off my lawn!), I'm afraid I like the old school rims. I'm a big fan of Rally II's (with no trim rings) and ARE 200s "Daisy" wheels. But seriously, don't listen to us, you know best what will look good on Lucy. -
Thanks for posting those links, Frosty. If I was up there, I would definitely take some or all of those circle tours.

Nice! -
I'm so sorry for the loss of your father, Frosty. That is a very nice tribute picture. So that's what the sunrise looks like at the beach.... I've never seen that before because that requires you to be on the beach before noon, lol! 😜 Great pictures, btw.

I was going to ask you how the colors were in Michigan this year. Is there a "go to" place in MI for fall colors?

Pictures #4 Some miscellaneous pictures from this summer of the bird feeder, Jonesy the cat, and my grandson Zach.

Pictures #3 Some pictures I took of the moon over the ocean at the outer banks of NC this summer.
-
Pictures #2 Some night pictures on the farm

Pictures #1 A couple of pictures I took in WV Saturday 11/3/2018. The colors were not so good this year, I guess because of all the rain we have had this summer and fall.

Hey everyone , im new got a 69 firebird trans am
stratman replied to Wfrank's topic in Introduce Yourself
I am so sorry about your wife's father. I can only imagine how he will feel when you take him for a ride in his old Trans Am. I'm sure you have googled the '69 TA, but in case you haven't, I came across the web page with a lot of '69 TA info: http://www.classicalpontiac.com/members/2/4.html BTW, -
Think about adding the Skyline Drive to your trip... I'm about 15 miles from miles from the start of the Skyline Drive. The end of the Skyline drive is the beginning of the Blue Ridge Parkway. So to get the full fairyland cruise, you would start at the beginning of the Skyline Drive in Front Royal VA, continue on the Skyline Drive till it crosses over I-64 at the top of Afton Mountain, at which point it becomes the Blue Ridge Parkway, and then continue on the Blue Ridge Parkway to the end in NC. The Skyline Drive is 105 miles, the speed limit is 35mph, it will add three to four hours to your trip but well worth it. If you were thinking about this year when the leaves change, they might not be too good this year due to all the rain we've had this spring, summer, and into the fall. Normally, about this time of year, we start to get some color. However, everything is still green and I'm afraid they're going to go from green to brown with not much color in between. It would be my pleasure to meet you.

Meh...it's ok. One big turnoff-The brother that runs the shop that works on original Trans Ams said he was a stickler for originality, but he swapped out the Pontiac 400 for an LS motor in the '78 they were restoring.

Nice pictures, Frosty... Thanks for posting! Maybe I'll make it there one year.

Thank you for the kind words, Last Indian.

I am so sorry for your loss, Frosty. It is doubly tough when you are grieving from the loss of your father and you are the executor of the will also. We've never met in person, but I know you are a good son and have taken on this burden without hesitation. Since the passing of my wife, I have read the following piece many times. It was in a little book that hospice gave me about the different stages of grief... it has given me some comfort during my sad times. I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other. Then someone at my side says: "There, she is gone!" "Gone where?" Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side and she is just as able to bear the load of living freight to her destined port. Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just at the moment when someone at my side says: "There, she is gone!" There are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad shout: "Here she comes!" And that is dying... -Henry Van Dyke-

I'm guessing $0.00... -
Agreed, but the back end and "Formula 350" badge on the front fender are '74.

Very nice Formula!... I love the black with red interior.

That is way different! Was that paint scheme offered at Royal Pontiac? BTW... You have become quite a good taker of pictures, great pics! -

stratman replied to JUSTA6's topic in Great Lakes's Discussion
Wow!!... That is striking! Would have loved to seen this one with the hood down. I have never been to a show that had the hoods down for maybe half an hour for folks who like to take pictures. -
Wow! Quite a project you have ahead of you! Judging from the color on the headlight surrounds, it looks like it may be Aguamarine (code P), a beautiful color. Congrats and good luck!
