First Day Out
Rose's first day out of the shop after a year and a half of a total nut and bolt restoration. Tomorrow she goes back to the paint shop for final touch-up. I'll post more pics of her when I get her back.
She is real and she is spectacular

Re: First Day Out
Glad you guys got the Seinfeld quote, and to clarify...she is real as far as being a factory Big Block 1/2 ton A/C truck, used to be a bit longer though
