**** you guys...

It's been just a hair over a week of storing Marilyn. All I did so far was look at her everyday, and one time, I pushed unlock on my key, just to see her light up. sad I know. I plan to trickle charge her today.

Gave her a wash for her birthday. One year ago today she rolled off the Flat Rock, MI assembly line.

I feel your pain. I pulled the cover up and sat in her for a few. got some ideas for the spring though while I sat there.

You have to understand that to some people, like me...cars are more than just cars. They're an extension of us...or art...or whatever else it is. I hate it when Marilyn is dirty, and she will never ever see rain...ever. Why? Because that's just how I want to keep her. Perfect and pristine. Some people don't care and they drive them etc...that's fine. Again, all it is is differences in perspective.

I'm with you 100%, Zto5..........whilst I can completely respect those that drive their Mustangs daily, for me, I want to keep her perfect. This is the most expensive car I've ever bought and hope to still be driving her when I'm an old man, so I figure I'm saving money by not having to restore her in 30 years time

I do have a reputation, within our Mustang Club, for not taking mine out in the rain.........................so you can imagine the stick I got for getting caught at our last meet

Are your brake lights smoked also? I've thought about buying the third light but didn't know how it would look with stock taillights.

They have tint on them, but I'm planning on replacing them with smoked LED tails in the very near future. Also tint for the side markers is on my to do list.
