Default Finally got some car pics...

Well I've been waiting until I could actually wax the car so that I could take some pics. (Just got the hood put on) As it is I got the front end waxed and quit, that 3-step Meguilars process is a really tiring thing to do.

This is a true daily driver. By that I mean that I drive this car every day and if it dies I'm screwed, not: "This is my daily driver meaning I drive it during the day on weekends." As you can see I'm in serious need of new headlights, but all in all I think she looks good for an 8 year old car on the original paint job (excluding the hood of course). Tell me what you think:

Car 1
Car 2
Car 3
Car 4

The pics are kind of big so I apologize to those with a slower connection.

That's right, you're in England....I was wondering what your emission standards are like over there? I've got orders to Aviano, so I'll be leaving here in another 3 months or so, wondering if I can ditch the smog stuff now that I am finally leaving California.

It's a harwood hood, and it's actually very good quality. The only drawback is that those reverse scoops are not cut out.

I knew that car looked familiar. I've seen it down here in Santa Maria on the Hancock College campus and all i gotta say is "WOW". You got a gorgeous car man.

Yep, that's me. Thanks a lot.

Spyder, sorry for the poor pics, but the hood is barely noticeable, only a 3" cowl.

That's a nice dealership. My in-laws live right near there, and every time we visit I get to oogle over the new cobras and lightnings in the lot.

I don't have any emissions on my car at all and I passed the MOT inspection (Ministry of Transportation), I'm not sure about Italy though.

If you don't mind me asking, where did you purchase those 302 emblems from?

You know, it's funny you ask. I originally saw these emblems in a picture on a mustang web site and it seriously took me several weeks to track them down. They are actually very hard to find, or at least were back when I ordered them. For that reason I can't give out the web site. I had to work for them, why shouldn't you?
