She's home! Here are a few pics...
« on: May 20, 2011, 03:24:46 PM »
Hey guys!  She's finally home!!!  I snapped a few pics with the iPhone.  Better ones will come later after I get a couple things cleaned up on the car.  Paint shop will have it next Wednesday to clean up & paint the window trim black, and try to wet sand a couple runs smooth.  Even though it has a new clutch, I think the throw out needs to be adjusted because it knocks a little when the clutch is engaged. (all input is welcome) All-in-all, it's more than I expected and I'm love'n it!

I have all the receipts.  Most of the work was done about 7 months ago, including the exhaust, wheels & tires, brakes, engine work, new master cylinder....and more.  I'm anxious to get out and enjoy it.  Sorry fellas, but I'm stopping there for now!  ;D

WOW your T/A looks amazing?  I really like the rims on it, I think they look right at home.

Thanks guys for the compliments.  My daughter and I took it out to run errands, ice cream, and general cruising fun.  As you guys have experienced, we got looks, thumbs up, nods, etc. everywhere.  Man, it sure does make a guy proud!  Plus, when I picked my daughter up at school, she went nuts, and her friends and other kids were checking it out & taking pics.  As we pulled away, she said, "This car is SOOOO cool."  She's daddy's girl, so if she's thrilled.....we picked a winner.

RainMan - Thanks man.  I used my iPhone 4.

That's so freak'n hilarious!  My dad said it's the third grandchild he's been asking for.  If we ever had another kid, he always jokes about us naming it after him.  His name is Steve (Stephen), so he's been calling the T/A Stephanie.  LOL!

Well crap ,I spent 11 grand on a camera and lenses for nothing

^^ j/k

but I gotta say I am amazed at the quality that little sensor on your Iphone is doing,makes no sense to me  .Most pics from phones leave alot to be desired . This is the redest T/A I have ever seen so far .
I can hardly imagine the kids at school seeing a real car for once after seing nothing but these look alike cookie cutter automobiles that are commen nowadays
