I saw on the news this morning that 58% of gas stations in NC are still without fuel, but it's supposed to get better as the week goes on.
Stupid panic buyers... don't they have any respect for the masses travelling to Blowing Rock?
I'm looking forward to pics and what you think of the new location!

Gas Buddy lists a few stations in Blowing Rock with gas, hopefully 93 Octane by the time I arrive tomorrow. Chetola Lodge looks extremely high brow unlike Fontana. Only 190 folks registered so this shows' future may be in jeopardy. Cell service hopefully, excellent dining and the Blue Ridge Parkway is right there.
More when I return, I think I have a T shirt with your name on it!

Oh yes - Blowing Rock is definitely "uppity." Cell service shouldn't be an issue. All the rich folk up there would live somewhere else, I'm sure. The BRP is beautiful but the speed limit is strictly enforced at 35 mph. Now, a park ranger might give you a ticket for speeding, but I'll leave that up to you whether you recognize their law enforcement authority
I hope you have fun. I'm going to figure out a way to make it next year assuming ZdayZ does not get meets its demise.

"Excuse me sir, but your Mare-say-deez is not welcome here. This is a Nissan/Datsun Z event."
"Well la dee dah, I had a few o'them too and still got a couple, you mean I had to bring one?"
Have fun y'all. I'm seriously considering Z Con in August, a tad bit closer to the left coast.

Only the third hills run since Covid...
And what a glorious day for a drive up to Mt. Umunhum, right in my own backyard.
Really makes me appreciate my car when it does everything I set it up to do. No fuss, no anxious moments, it just does as I direct it with nary a complaint. Every summer I think of selling it. Then I take a drive like today's. Nope, renews my enthusiasm for my car. Guess I'll go put on my light wheels and have another go before I have to leave it for a month.

Hey all! It's been a while.... Just got the nismo back to the way it should be. The shop did an amazing job. Repainted hood, bumper, new lower under cover, and blended the fenders. New windshield because it was pretty bad with rock chips. Their PDR guy got dents out of the hatch from previous owner(s) pushing on it too hard.

Aarons Auto Glass in Joliet. The owner at the body shop recommended them. They did it at the body shop, figured that was the best time with the hood off. No complaints here. They let it set for two days indoors to get a good seal. I can see the vin, and honestly it looks just like it did before. Without all the chips in the glass...

just like the title says. Post a picture of your vehicle, as it is now, both the exterior and the interior. Don't clean it, don't rearrange ****, just snap a few pictures and put them up. I want to see your vehicles as they are day to day. seen this on other forums and its a pretty popular regulary bumped thread. figured id make one here.
so heres mine. hoping to get my 06 headlights this weekend. Only had the car for 3 days now. things will change.
