an awesome saturday in the sun

sky2k · 05-03-2008, 06:09 PM

Well i took the s2k out today and the weather was a nice 75 degrees. Just perfect! It seems that i wasn't the only one who thought so. I saw many other stewies cruisin around with the top down..and i finally saw a brand new 2008 on the road. It was the most s2ks i've seen in one day, not including meets or car shows...Way nice! It was a good day.

oh it was nice, i must say. i still can't wait for the nights to warm up java..then the new top i put on will never see day or night..hah!

Just had two days of beautiful, top down, 68 degrees, clear sunny skies driving...unfortunately, the last drive was to the airport to fly off to work. Hated putting the top up and locking the car...wanted just to drive on forever!

i drove around today aswell, it was an awsome day, but didnt see any other stewies, bc im all alone here in lubbock

gomarlins3 · 05-03-2008, 10:19 PM

We had a Honda meet today as well, but I was in the Accord.

GREAT weather today. Took a little ride to the northern suburbs of Hooterville. The locals were having a car show. Lots of 60's and 70's American Iron, a few pickups and even a couple of tractors (it's farm country).

BUT LO & BEHOLD, a 1954 Austin Healy 100 !!!!!! Red and white in VERY good condition. The one and only non-American in the place and nobody was even giving it a second glance (like I said, its farm country).

I tried to find the owner, but either he wasn't there or didn't want to admit it was his. Boy, I sure never expected to see one of those around here! Nice surprise.

sky2k · 05-04-2008, 05:18 PM

I can't get enought of the top down days...today again, i took the long way home and enjoyed a different scenic route..but surprisingly, i didn't see any other stewies...a drop top beamer and that was about all..it may have been too early in the AM..

bbcricketta · 05-04-2008, 06:25 PM

and the grill is wrong for a 100...3000 grill all the way.

jagg · 05-05-2008, 09:42 AM

Sheesh!

Nitpicky crew of old timers round this place......Okay, it's a 3000.

I'll try and come up with a 100.....may take a day or two.

I was more in it for The Stones tongue.......

Hate to hijack, but I couldn't pass this up. Toss away an old Healey years ago? This'll make ya regret it..........

DJJSR · 05-05-2008, 10:56 AM

Here's a 100.........

Here's something you might be interested in. Healey concept car from a few years ago. It's a V8. Looks eerily similar to GM's roadster.

TheSoundMan21 · 05-05-2008, 11:30 AM

ya my 1st thought as well.....hey look another Sky/Soltice

jagg · 05-05-2008, 04:01 PM

Is this it? Hey I ain't from England ya know!!

DJJSR · 05-05-2008, 04:11 PM

BY JOVE!!!!, mmmmmmmmmm..........I don't think so.

yeah, i have to agree, i think if Cadillac made their version of the solstice/sky, it'd look something like that...

You ain't kiddin' DJJSR, It has the distinct look of a GM Kappa platformed automobile. The potential is there, if they continue to develop it while keeping costs under control. The styling on this one is better than the Solstice and the Sky, so we'll probably never see it.

Good pic !!
