Default Good weather + great drive = New pics (56K warning)

Took the car out for about a 50 mile drive today.
Weather was great and i haven't driven the car since mid November.
I had the wheels refinished a couple weeks ago along with new tires.
Also removed the rear "turbo" reflector and had the holes welded sanded and painted.
Im looking forward to some road trips/sunday drives and GTG's this summer.
Winter is gone and it feels good to have the car out again

Antonio-

What detailing products are you using? Did you do that yourself? Beautiful car, you should cross post on concours & car care, just to show off!

I'm so glad I just bought a hi-res widesreen monitor. And I'm so glad I finally found some hi-res pictures of a beautiful car to put my new monitor to good use!

Thanks guys,
Arash I have tons of hi-res pics in the gallery if you want any.
useth4z I use Meguiar products. I start with the NXT tec wax in paste form as a base, then a coat of NXT tec wax liquid, after a few days I apply a 3rd coat this time I use Gold Class liquid form.
Works really good, black is nearly impossible to keep clean. Even if I go out on very nice and clean roads, ill have a bunch of dust on the paint. The nice thing is you can just wipe it off because of the 3 layer wax underneath the dust. I really enjoy taking care of the car and dont mind spending an hour waxing it in the garage. The results are rewarding
