 |
|
Well, since this forum doesn't get much action (no posts in 6 months), here's my ride. I traded in my old 96 Windstar minivan for this 2004 Bonneville in October. I love it. Here she is with her new wheels (I just put them on):
She looks mean. I also transferred the stereo equipment from the van into the Pontiac. I wanted to have some useable trunk space, so I ventured to construct a fiberglass enclosure for a single 12" sub. Worked out great for my first fiberglass job.
Construction pics:
   
   
Anyone else have a new ride to share?

Easy!!! its a ford...with the 2.3L. Same motor as the Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, Mustang SVO, and the ranger. Not nearly as bad as people think.
Shes got 65,000 original miles too. 
Not to mention...these cars themselves are so cheap....go look at the KBB. i can find a winter beater XR for around 500 bucks....easy. There are four for sale insomeones back yard for 1000 bucks. Anyone want four Merkurs?
Plus, a huge merkur enthusiast parts supplier is right here in jersey!!!
Fresh..i sold the Audi...for the above problem. Most of the parts i needed could only be sourced from Audi...in GERMANY. Cost wasnt worth it....cut losses. I sold her. Now if i could only get rid of this 944.....

Still a loan nonetheless.
If I was paying cash then yea, i would say TN is going well, but for now it is doing ok. It has to, it is my only source of income.
................well, other than my chipindales gig every Friday........
Was that my outside voice?
