If I get the C6 brakes on in time, I'll probably stop by.

Yeah, I can imagine! It's cold enough when it's below freezing, without factoring in windchill at 60+.

Got the spindle cut, wheel bearing in, brake ducts locked down, and rotor on tonight. Now I need to get the abrutment bracket on, caliper mounted, new hose installed, bleed it, and brake in the pads in order to make it. We'll see how tomorrow goes.
