February 4, 200718 yr comment_198026 Brushie,I'm 25 miles East of Colorado Springs, 5 miles South of Ellicott off HWY 94. And don't get me started on the weather. Seven weekends of snow storms, cold and wind. COME ON SPRING!!!!!!!!!! I just got the 220 electric heater for the garage and need to install it. Too damn cold to work out there lately. Let me know if you want to talk Z's. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/23168-off-to-colorado-next-week/#findComment-198026 Share on other sites More sharing options...
February 4, 200718 yr comment_198027 Hi Brushie,I'm in Berthoud, about an hour north of Denver. There are a few of us up here who would enjoy getting together fellow Z owners for a cruise in the mountains once things warm up. The Z Car Club of Colorado is based in Denver, I think they have a few members with 240/260/280 Z cars.http://www.zccc.org/ Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/23168-off-to-colorado-next-week/#findComment-198027 Share on other sites More sharing options...

February 4, 200718 yr comment_198050 Yeah, we have had an unusually snowy & cold winter so far along the Front Range area (Pueblo on the south to Fort Collins on the north, with Colorado Springs and Denver in between). I am a Denver native and normally the winters are pretty mild here for the most part (excluding the mountains to the west of us). Hope you enjoy your stay here next week Brushie and Tubo240, I think you and your roommate will enjoy living in Colorado.

February 5, 200718 yr comment_198112 Brushie, Hope my bitching about winter didn't put you off. I love living in Colorado and wouldn't move for anything. However, I think this is the worst winter I've seen in the last 16 years of living here. Most of the time the weather is good and the winters are bearable. I think you'll like living here. Attached is a pic of some of the great sunsets I see all the time.

February 5, 200718 yr Author comment_198114 No our mind is pretty much made up..were going.The only problen is the shop foreman where i work offered me 100,000 for a down payment on a house here in California, The deal is after 3 years i have to refinance the house and pay him back. Now the cheapest house where i live is around 400,000.Colorado springs for the same house is 160,000. So Im most likely moving to colorado unless my payments here can be around 1500 a month. But we will see. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/23168-off-to-colorado-next-week/#findComment-198114 Share on other sites More sharing options...
