A few pics of my new `used` car-

Hey everyone. It`s been since October of last year that I popped in here. Life`s been moving too quickly leaving me less and less time to frequent this place.

Anyway, I had gotten a 2008 Ford Fusion SE back in early October and have since added Tein S-tech springs as well as a set of aftermarket wheels.

In fact, the S-techs just aren`t low enough, so I just got a set of ST coilovers so those will be added soon, closing up that ugly fender gap.

Additional plans call for some window tint and possibly a front lip. I`m also toying with either some hand-painted striping or doing a matte black vinyl over the top, pinstriped in a burnt orange color. I`ve got time on that though, as I don`t have much extra cash for now. And I gave her a good detail when I bought her in October, but this spring she`ll be getting a real work-over, although she`s in pretty good shape overall.

Anyway, for now here are the pics:

Thanks for looking.

Is that an old Celebrity EuroSport in the background, or are my eyes playing tricks on me?

Yeah, that`s what that is. It`s in bad shape, but the guy just keeps on driving her. She makes all kinds of noise, but I`ll be damned if the thing doesn`t just keep on going. LOL

Thanks Ron. All is well, how about you?

Doing well, thank you.

I don`t know what year that is, but that vintage A-Bodies were great cars, small outside, big inside, ran good once you adjusted the carb if it was an 82-85. Although that Chevy 2.8 was kind of a nightmare, the ones with the Buick 3.0 were better but I don`t think they ever put them in the Chevy`s.

Anyway, sorry I hijacked your thread. That was just an interesting period in GM history, with EuroSports, 6000 STE`s, and T-Types, it was when GM seemed to realize that people were buying VW`s, Audi`s, and BMW`s and they needed to compete with that, as unsuccessful as they were.
