THE HSV GRANGE LIKES IT NEW ROOM-MATE.
(There like twins as they have the same engine and transmission).
The Cobra's having its first sleep in its new home over the weekend. Last Saturday, I was supposed to drive it up to Wyong on the Central Coast of NSW for it's Noise Test and Full Engineering certification. Unfortunately, it poured all weekend in Sydney so will try again tomorrow. The bad news is that the weather report is similar to last weekend, but they have been wrong before.
I spent today day washing, polishing, waxing, cleaning just about every part of the car until it sparkled. The best part of the day was having all the neighbours stop by for a peek. People who have lived in the area for years, now come up and introduced themselves when they saw it in the garage. Women were particularly into it. When my female neighbour saw it, she started making noises that sounded very similar in tone to the final stages of a huge orgasm. I was also invaded by the local Year 10 and Year 12 girls who are trying to book me up for a lift to their Year Ending formals. How could a hunk of fibreglass, steeel and rubber cause so much interest in the neighbourhood? (And I am talking about the Cobra).
The car is having the polished stainless steel spats on the front of the rear guards mated to the guard shape on Monday, then it's back to the workshop for some minor tinkering until the Engineers Report arrives. Then it's the Blue Slip and rego. It's that close that I can taste it, but all depends on the weather now as the Noise Test can't be done when its wet.
Penny Wong is the Federal Climate Minister, so Iv'e sent her an urgent email hoping that she might be able to help me out tomorrow
