Still love this car. One of my faves on the site, imposter and all

 

Doesn't matter Mopar. The pictures are still great and your car is, ah......well......awesome.

Turned out great!

 

Thanks bill!

 

That was my plan as well. Unfortunately it came down fast while I was at work.

The stores here have cart returns in the parking lot. You pick one up in the store.

 

SR-71

and your stang too

 

Cart returns? You mean the cart stalls around every isle?

 

Haha wow I literally didn't even see the SR-71! Double wow!

 

 

Really like those rims

 

Thanks! But as a matter of record, the plane is actually an A-12 which is a precursor of the SR-71 (The park director was REAL QUICK to correct me!)

 

Haha nice. Look to be pretty close relatives though

 

having been @ the Udvar-Hazy Center fairly recently, this A-12 appears to sport a much glossier finish than the blackbird. They only made about 15 A-12's ever, with maybe half still around.

The only main outside appearance difference is that the SR-71 has an additional seat and subsequent windows, and a much broader sensor array.

For the record they both leak fuel quite badly when down on the ground and lower altitudes -- purposely designed that way so they didn't implode at 85,000 feet.

I know next to nothing about airplanes, but seeing this and the Space Shuttle Enterprise (OV-101) up close were my highlights.

The Enterprise is now in New York, ironically with an A-12.


I really want to get back there and see Space Shuttle Discovery, now that it's replaced the Enterprise.

 

Not every aisle of the parking lot, but they spread them around. The idea is that you don't have to walk far to return the cart. We don't have a whole lot of stray carts at our supermarkets anymore. Other states don't have cart return areas in the parking lot?

 

Looking great!! Those wheels look good

 

Put some miles on her! Enjoy it! Haha nice car

 

My second favorite color of the 2013's Looks awesome Mopar!!

 

Just a remake, uh ? Well the pictures are absolutely fantastic.

I love them. Excellent work Airoscar.------Bill

 

Gobraphil, my apologies. I don't know how I missed your post.

Anyways, that picture is unbelievable !! Besides your car looking incredible......Now all you need is Breitling's Blackbird wristwatch to go along with it and you're all set.

After no mustang for a year, I have returned to the fold. This is my 12th mustang and I'm starting to think they are like air for me. Some cars just feel right.. idiosyncrasies and all. Here are a couple photos after a wash. Really enjoying this color. I've had mostly silver, grey, or black cars.

After these shots, I clay barred and applied Zaino and all I can say is "wow!" It's been raining here, so no chance to get it back out for before/after photos.
