The car is running great. Went for a cruise on this beautiful freezing day. Never realized how amazingly driveable the car is cruising at 90mph.

2010 plans coming soon. I got lots of new ideas!

    Tinted windows - 35%
    Have all fender liner resprayed black
    Working fog lights - yellow bulbs
    New exhaust hangers for the axle back
    Entire undercarriage deep cleaned and sprayed black
    Misc. stickers

Yes the Works are gonna get redone. And yeah I don't like dark tint. Just something nice to keep it a little classy. This will definitely be a race before Carlisle.
