Default Almost there (some pics)

Ive only been a (driveable) 944 owner for a month or so, and I must say this car is amazing. I just added the Lindsey MAF and what a difference!!! WAY smoother and I love the new sounds!!!

Note: If car is stolen, limbs will be removed ... not kidding.

And I promise to help in the surgery using a very dull spoon... not kidding either.

Derek, if anyone steals your car, I promise to come out of retirement for a little pro bono sniper work. (I miss it frankly.) Dude the car looks beautiful. Can't wait to see it at the C Fl. GTG.

It's the lighting. That car is a wine color of red. Can't remember the actual color, but it appears one of the stock colors.

Love those wheels, were those formally 944Pete's or a different set?

Great looking ride!

Ehall, if mine gets stolen, I'll hafta pass on the sniper work. Unless you know of some really slow, dull bullets loaded with broken glass. Sniper work just won't hurt enough. I'm thinking power drills and blow torches.

Oh yeah, the bullets need to be rusty too.

Sharp car Derek! Is that a roll bar I see through the rear quarter glass in the 3rd pic? Glad to hear you are enjoying your P-car ownership!

Its Maraschino Red. I was into everything BUT gards red when I was looking for a car.

Yes, those used to be Petes wheels , and yes, I have an Autopower bolt in roll bar. Next step is the Momo seats, maybe this weekend. Apologies on the dark pics, I was so excited I wanted to get some pics of it before it got dark.

I have a $10.00 machete thats been sitting on my porch, its showing the first hints of rust, it will be perfect for the job (hopefully it wont be needed).

The BOV sound is awesome, will an aftermarket one change the "fluttering" or will that remain the same?
