I agree with you, I really like the tail on Adams car, it is one of those in the future mods I would like to make.

Lower that sucker though!

Apologies to the purists.

Some people say that Green is an unlucky colour. Perhaps that's the reason?

Thats true, I think it was because in the UK its always been hard to sell green cars secondhand. Not sure it really applies to dark green metallic these days though.

Thanks, Nutbeem, but the green car is not mine. I pulled it up from adamsbr p-car profile and felt compelled to share this beauty with the board.

Doesn't Green represent MONEY. I sure think it's lucky to have it.

Thanks for the compliments on my car. I am not a superstitous guy but this car has been "lucky" for me. Been thinking about lowering it a bit but my wife reminds me that when I drop my big bottom into the drivers seat, well "Low Rider" comes to mind.

Great to see some other Forest Green cars! Great colour but a bugger to keep clean!

Cheers

Targatime,

Quite honestly the sheen that you see on components of my engine bay is not brought about by anything but lots of elbow work and soapy water. I dont like to use sprays or coatings in my engine bay as I believe they have adverse effects on the plug leads etc. Once my engine was sprayed with that greasy stuff after a service by my local dealer but I wiped it all off. I do use Zaino Z6 on the painted areas of the bay and I spray a little WD40 and aviation lubricant on the throttle linkages but that is about as far it goes. I had cut the engine bay lid on the underside and again Zaino Z1 and Z6.

To get the engine bay this clean has been ongoing for 7 months, I continually clean it along with the rest of the car and as time goes by you mange to restore more and more of it original lustre.

Youcef
