Sigh.

Susan, I did yours with your top off, uh, I mean down. Maybe I'm getting better at this... so far I think it's the best:

I think Susan with her top down WOULD be the best of this group too.

Good work Tom that is the best so far.

don't you guys think the mini would look better lowered? if only I had that $250 I am spending on insurance deductible... would have been good mod money.

Nice job! Even the Dodge Hemi in the background looks good!

I didn't slam it... just a Steeda Ultra-Lite drop:

Attachment 5213 Normal

Attachment 5214 Lowered

Bill, send your sister the $250!

I think she needs to go down a little further.

Still has the 4x4 wheel well gap, although not as bad as the 'normal' shot.

$250?? Sure, right after I get by Solo S2 radar, sequentials, DVD/NAV unit, and SCT tune! Honestly, it maybe quicker if Susan starts a $50 buck a month mod savings plan.

I moved the tires up pretty good in the first lowered shot. Any more would be an Eibach drop.

Here ya go... slammed! (Forget your CDC Classic Chin Spoiler now, though)

The feedback received from my club's Drive-In show was great!

Alot of folks couldn't believe I did the install. Most asked questions about the Shaker were;
Who did it?, How long did it take?, and my favorite, Were you nervous??

I was also asked back to back on what my secret is on how I keep the engine bay so clean. Simple.. Don't drive it!... j/k, I said, "Don't drive it in the rain!".

Overall, it was a successful test bed for what's in store for me later this month.

Visit my Bucket album for all the pics from this meet.
(Also included several shots of the Mach 1 Shaker, incl the rear hood stripe)

Me, too. That's about what it would look like. A little down in the front and a little more in the rear to help level out the stance. It's hard to show that by moving the wheels up, since the body doesn't move in relation to the ground.

Looks good, Bill! I'm surprised how clean my engine compartment stays... cause I'm always driving in the rain it seems!

Now you see what I mean about the 50 bucks a month plan?

You can pick this unit up on eBay for around $1600.

Although expensive, this is one sweet unit! Where as others, this one can play 2 DVD's (1 for NAV and the other for a movie).

All I need now is my bonus check...

It does look nice!! Just have to make sure future cars have a double-sized, 4" tall dash opening!

Well, we are going to the mall

So, I'll be back on later.
