94m5 March 21st, 2007, 12:53 AM well, I actually had some time to take the 95' out for a close to final ride this weekend. I ran up us24 from the springs to Buena Vista, Co, and up some small highway to I70. From there back to denver, and finally on to I25 back in to the frantic oblivion that is Colorado Springs.
Really have some beautiful country up here, and I would put some pictures up, but for some reason I seem to be over a newly placed quota, and can't post anymore. OH well. Here is the vid.
This vid was taken at 10K+ above sea level. So if you decide to call out that the car is slow......it has a reason to be. Not much oxygen up there.
Sorry if you don't like EmmyLou, or Barry White. I was in a helluva good mood and felt like listening to something different.
Enjoy!
Mike

turborich March 21st, 2007, 01:13 AM I say that if you really tear that car apart... that well it would be a crime! KEEP IT just like it is! otherwise we will have to hunt you down and bring you to justice! (LOL) Seriously though, that is such a nice Mark VIII!
Sergmark March 21st, 2007, 02:14 AM Mike:D
Ahh memories of driving my 69 427 Corvette around Boulder:cool: :I I lived in Arvada for 1 year
I think Mike said it was sold Like it is ??
turborich March 21st, 2007, 10:07 AM Really? You are selling the car complete? Well that's good to hear. Someone will be very happy!
MonsterMark March 21st, 2007, 11:02 AM So if you decide to call out that the car is slow......it has a reason to be.
It's a good thing we can't see the speedo but nonetheless I'm sure you weren't going more than 5 over anyway.:eek:
Frogman March 21st, 2007, 12:12 PM Looks like he was pushing about 100mph.
94m5 March 21st, 2007, 01:42 PM Nah, I like to keep the cruise RPM below 3500 to keep the IMRC's closed, so around 95mph ish.
Yea, the car is being sold as it sits. The new owner BETTER be happy with it...... lol.
I'm hoping to get back out on the interstate with some friends in thier cars, and get some good footage of the 95 running down the road. only time can tell.

Frogman March 21st, 2007, 02:00 PM Hey, did you get that part I sent you?

Emmylou is awesome...especially her older "stuff". Barry's cool too. :cool:
Nice looking drive!

chickenviii March 21st, 2007, 10:02 PM sounds like the squeaky dash is fixed, i had some good rides in her, hey wait you said that eventually i would get to drive it someday, so that leaves me what 2 days to get my happy ass out to Colorado? LOL
glad to see her stay in one piece, but HATE to see her go :(
94m5 March 22nd, 2007, 12:33 AM Hey, did you get that part I sent you?
Yea, I got it, and as you can tell from the unholy sound from the open secondaries at 3500, it's installed. :)
I also would like to take the time and scream at you about your lacksidasical use of MSN messenger lately.
EDIT* Yea Chicken, the dash is fixed, has been for a while. :) I'll have the car for a bit longer so if you get some time, c'mon out.
