Spring is near.

This weeks mods: New Motorcraft battery, battery and cylinder covers, new painted coil covers to replace my pee yellow ones, new radiator fasteners, sound tube delete, blingy washer cap.

This nice tuner from AM showed up today also.

 

What kind of covers are those you have for the battery? Really makes the engine bay looks less cluttered and clean, very nice!

 

Thanks! They are made by California Pony Cars and sold at american muscle.

Thanks! I did not even know they made these. They look really good.

 

I was just about to ask the same thing. Those really clean up the back section!

 

Took these photos last weekend - part of Marilyn's coming out party. Weather was great, so I took her out and had her pose by her new stable, and some downtown. Enjoy.

 

Killer photos Burton!
She looks awesome as usual. Love it.

 

Beautiful and clean, and an awesome shot!

 

Looking beautiful, Burton!! Love that Kona!

 

Sharp pictures Burton!

 

Awesome pics of Marilyn as always Burton

 

Went for a long drive today and took some pics. Felt so good.

(sorry for the quality...I just copied them from FB )

 

Looks killer Nathan!!

 

Nathan, I see nothing wrong with the pic quality at all.. Your pics look just fine IMO..

Many thanks guys - figured it is time to start out the season. Would you believe I haven't detailed her wheels since October last year? LOL... yes, they are FILTHY. I have just been doing rinseless bucket washes so far - and I never want to do those with the wheels. I'll do a hose wheel wash soon enough, if time ever opens up.

Nathan - rockin' pics. You get her out for the season then too, I take it?

 

Thanks, Tony!!

Thanks! I just copied them from FB cause they're too big to upload here. Turned out better than usual. lol

There's never enough time! Bet you can't wait to have the house finished and be all moved in. Hopefully more time for detailing.

Yes, she's out! Think it's been two (?) weeks now. Didn't realize how much I missed driving her until I took her for a long drive saturday afternoon and found some empty backroads. Getting some rain mixed with s*** tonight. Gonna be super pissed if they put salt out in the morning, but we're supposed to get more rain later this week, so at least it should get washed away if they do. I just want full blown summer already! lol

 

I too like the looks of those covers. Very nice. Is there any need to be concerned with trapping battery gasses when using something like that. Just wondering... Does make that engine bay all neat and tidy!

 

I used to run those covers all the time, then pulled over once during a standard drive and figured I'd check the brake fluid, I took off the cover and tons of heat blasted me in the face.
All the heat can't be good for the brake fluid, which is also the clutch fluid.
So I no longer leave them on, I just put them on at shows now ...

 

Couple recent ones:

 

Very beautiful 5.Monster. Looks sexy and perfect. Are those Steeda sports or did you change the suspension? I have the sports also, don't look as low and good as yours.
