Some of you know I am building a house in a new development. This means lots of MUD and nails.

I have patched a nail already, and she is now brown.I am embarassed of her, but she goes back to brown everytime I drive through that mess.

BUT the point of this story is I was out yesterday, and the siding guy looks at her,asks me what year she is.
05 I reply. YOU SURE?
Hades yes I am sure......
Well it sure looks like a 67...
Here's your sign.

BTW- she is dealing with this mess.

Other than your car looking a little dirty (it doesn't really show in the pics ) Your car looks like it was just pasted onto the background in the 1st picture! Very cool picture in my opinion!

The rocker panels are proving a problem.....

Mud and black are not friends.

She is going to have her own personal climate controlled horse house when we move though.


She attracts attention like the pied piper when we go down that road though- its all under construction, and construction workers are all perverts.

April, try some Mothers Back to Black on those rockers panels after you wash the car. You can pick it up anywhere and it works great trust me, as I am now a Ford dealer

April, you need to keep that classic 67 Cobra locked up! There's a new street going in behind me that would make a great 1/4 mile 0:-) ... but with all the construction I'm afraid of running over nails and such.

Eleanor will have a 20X20 insulated garage all her own to keep her warm at night and cool in the summer.Right now she shares her crappy cinderblock horse house with packing boxes and spiders.

Oh and maybe I will let the charger live in there to keep her company, provided I get to recreate bullitt whenever I want.
