Of course she is on the water now! This what she looked like when I bought her last August. She is on water the year round, meaning I can go sailing anytime I want

But Patrick, aren't you icebound 8 months of the year?

Do you have to call the navy for an icebreaker everytime you want to pull out of your slip?

No

Though a handful of miles south of the Arctic Circle, we have the Gulf stream that flows along the coast - and combined with a tidal difference of 2.5 metres, there is never ice on the fjords here (except one or two "inland" from here)

Now that's a cool picture. Middle of the day, huh? Cool.

I wouldn't recommend highway riding without some tucking, it's hell on the kilt

Navycb...I'm jealous!!

When I turned 16 back in 1979, I had the chance to buy a nice '67 Firebird convertible with the OHC 6 and a 4-speed for a whopping $500. It had the same hood as your blue one. However, my mother figured I'd kill myself if I had a convertible so she nixed the idea. I've held a grudge against her over that ever since.

Also...nice Sporty! I admit I'm a little biased towards them, though.

Thank's, I've got a thing for 67 and 68 Birds. The blue one is a 99% original 67 400 with a factory power top, the only thing not original is the paint and the sidepipes. the orange 68 was originaly a 400 car but now has a built 455 and the red 68 drop top now has a 600 hp built 455. I also am partial to sporty's there light and handle great and of course this one has been pumped up a bit.

That was my second car! I got it when i was 17. I got the Colt, I thought I was the only one in the world who had one. Ha
