My car won a prize...
I placed first in my class at the local Mustang Club show. My room mates got a chuckle watching me spend all day Friday detailing the car. I went through every air vent with a Q-tip to get the dust out ! The interior is almost like new now.Nice and shiny.When I started on the engine ,they left in disgust. The exterior was already reasonably clean. There were only 3 cars in my class (1994-1995 modified ) so I had a good chance.
Too bad the weather sucked . It started off okay,but then the thunder and hail and rain came. The high end cars left (Two Shelby's , a Boss 351, and several Cobra ragtops),and the rest of us were soaked. It was worth it in the end.

Its a good feeling when your effort pays off.
Won a prize (a slab of beer )at a ute show once with my old ute. It was judged most original. The judge nearly wet himself when he saw the milage on the car, approx 70,000km on a 25year old car. Made all the polishing worth it.

The Mustang spends most days in a garage and stays clean (mostly..) The Focus is enthusiastically daily driven ,eats the occasional cone every 2 weeks , and is sorta clean !
Working 4 days on , 4 days off helps too... |
