Well its a good thing you washed it...cause it looks great.

Im not a fan of the IROC wheels, but the car looks very sharp.

Haha, gas is too expensive to put in a V8... Eventually, after I get a new car though, it wouldn't be too bad of an idea.

I clicked that pic because I thought it would resize bigger, but it didn't,so I don't have any available comments on your girlfriend. But the car looks good!

Re: Finally washed it!

This winter I'm thinking about redoing the body, new 1/4's, rockers, and straightening the drivers door. At that point, it would give me time to pull the Iroc's off and polish them again. I ran out of patience before I put them on, and now I have a perfect chance, so it's gonna be done. So this winter, New body, new brakes, polished wheels.
