Not to rub it in but you should've gone. It was awesome!!!
Here's a link to the pics.

There were lots of people with no car show etiquette. As you'll see in one of my pics some guy was picking the diecast car of the shaker hood. There were tons of people who I just wanted to scream at. When will people understand look but don't touch and not leaning on cars?

Idiots like this is the reason why you prop up a folding chair right next to your ride. I still don't understand why some of these people must touch and feel everything!
Well, thanks for posting the pics. I see alot of nice 05/06 custom GT's. If these same guys show up at the Queen Mary show, I definately have my work cut out for me.

I went to a Porsche carshow that was judged and there were 3 guys inspecting every inch of each car. One of them actually put on some white cotton gloves and put their hands behind and around the motor (in places you can't even see!) to check for dirt and grime. These judges were hardcore!
Have fun cleaning, Tom!

Wow, Bill... we had a 6.0 earthquake today!!
Actually, it was in the Gulf of Mexico, but tremors were felt as far away as Orlando. I didn't feel anything, though.

I think she drives and owns a newer T-Bird modded by her buddy, Chip Foose. Since it's a Ford, she's a member of our club.
If I went up to Courtney and gave a big kiss and told her it was from a guy in FL, I think I'll get smacked and my membership revoked! (in that order).

We already know too much about the Saffir-Simpson scale.

On a Mustang note, the '66 is doing pretty good on eBay for still having 7 days left!

Now you guys have me looking at DVD head units (stupid Daryl
). But, I would have to stay with my favorite brand... Kenwood. Found some nice ones... all about $899 to $999.

Quick Q's. Do any of you use the car as a daily driver or atleast more than Bill does? If so how's the finish of your chin spoiler looking?
Reason I ask is because if it starts looking bad after awhile I figured I'd leave the matte finsih on it rather than wasting money on having it color matched.

Not sure about a painted one, though.
BTW, Mach 1 chin spoilers were matte black.

My window tint scratched. I have to call the installer and see what they plan to do about it.

I say color matched on Black, just my opinion.
