Part of it was touching the alternator, causing the whole car to shake and it also would make this really bad whooshing sound. I put a piece of rubber hose over the part of the bar that touched the alt, and also shaved a little bit off the top of the top of it. It's much better now.
Put it in the Car show tomorrow. Its ready to go.

you know clay bar comes first, Im assuming you just meant that you didnt think you'd have time to do all three, so you just chose the most important two

Awesome. I wish I had an uncle with a bunch of cool cars like that.

Ya, it was already dark out, and getting late, so I just skipped the clay and polish, and just waxed.

I think it looks mint and with 200 plus photos on this sight I dought being brave will get in the way. Its not about the trophy. Its about the fun. Now go get all of us a trophy.

I've been in shows and its fun to show off what you have and get Ideas. Lots of people from TCstangs and SVTOA will be there I'm sure.

There's still a few things I want to fix before I put it in a show. I'm not thinking about a trophy or anything, I'm just sort of a perfectionist. Plus I probably won't get there until afternoon because I have to go to church in the morning.

You're telling me!! It's one of the most expensive cars I've seen in a long time. The last one was a modded Bentley on a car show.

You'll may wonder why I haven't been around lately, but I think this computer doesn't want me to be on this forum. All other ones work, but I haven't been able to access this page the whole week! It makes me really mad.

David, glad you like the avatar

And Nathan, if I can take my broke *** II to a show, back when the paint was faded, rust made holes in the hatch and door, it barely ran right and I had to have it towed in, then you can take that PRISTINE 2.3L notch to a show.

that reminds me of that top gear episode where they had maserati's, and went to one of those concours shows, where everything had to be perfect, and exactly like factory, and needless to say, their's werent. and one of the rules was that they had to come in on their own power, and one wouldnt run, so they tied it to the back bumper and drove in bumper to bumper, funny stuff!

Isn't it kind of odd to enter your car when there's only 1.5 hours left of the show?

Ok, I didn't enter the show today because I'm stupid, but I have decided that I WILL enter my car in the June show. That way I can have my car the way I want it first. The show was pretty cool though. Lots of cool stangs and stuff. You can see the pics here.

Glad you had a good time at the show Nathan!

So, I had 2 job interviews on Friday. The one in the morning went well. I was told that they were definitely intersted in me for the position, but had a couple more people to interview and wouldn't decide anything until the end of next week. The one in the afternoon went well also, but the bad news is that it's another title company. It's been a month and a half since I got laid off and it's been driving me crazy not working. So, they offered me the position while I was there but I had to let them know by the end of the day. I really don't like to feel that rushed making a decision, but since I wasn't going to hear from the other place for another week I had to take it. I'll start tomorrow. The good news is that I know a couple of people that work there already (they are the ones that asked the owner to call me for an interview). I just hope the market keeps getting better.

So today, to congratulate myself, I went out and treated myself to a new cell phone. I've been wanting the new DARE for a little while, so I bought it I'm still trying to figure everything out!
