Fun pic...I was shooting from the other side of the pond and had to talk to my model with a walkie talkie. Wish we could have got the car closer to the water, but the ground was to soft.

The map light and the two footwell lights in the doors. They're part of a partial LED retrofit that I need to write up properly but haven't had the time. And I'm not sure I like the results so far (you can see the unevenness in the gauge cluster- more research to do. Maybe this weekend.)

Rob's garage floor is cleaner than my kitchen.


Here's one from the day the 85 car came home.

So I am guessing you weigh around 229 pounds +/-.

My GTS weighed in on same type of scales at 3505 with 1/2 tank.

Thought I was 220....

With me out of the car, I got 3536 with 3/4 tank, so we're in the ballpark. Those Cup 4 wheel/tire combos are bricks. Yeah, that's it.

Think the neighbors will notice?

LOL I agree those cup wheels are heavy, at least that is my excuse.
Fikses only weigh 20 pounds each but they don't fit the car as well.

and BTW I don't see a thing.
