Took some pics today

I listed my car for sale last week and thought I should deal with some maintenance stuff.So I spent yesterday afternoon doing an oil change,changing spark plugs and cleaning the MAF.The usual stuff,especially IF the car should find a new home,LOL! I was going to try and do a DIY for the spark plugs BUT it's wayyyy to tight in there to get good pics for you guys to see,especially working off of jack-stands!If I had a hoist it would have been doable...
Well after I was done I felt inspired to go for a drive...So
I got up early this morning and went out to take some better pics of the car.
Hope you enjoy them...

Thumbs up

Not a big fan of black simply because it's too much of a job for me.

BUT...Your car is absolutely flawless!

Best of luck with on the sale!

The guilt of owning such an expensive car and NOT driving it.......that is why I am selling it.Pretty expensive piece of art to have and not use,LOL!

On a side note....just received a tentative offer a couple of hours ago BUT it was a bit low so I turned it down!
Kinda nice being able to sell something on my terms,NOT because I have too!

Thanks all for the kind words!

Stacy

Nice pics. Your car looks flawless. Are you buying anything to replace it?

I am changing out my spark plugs next weekend (hopefully) as well. How long did it take you to do? Any recommendations before I start? Did you remove the mufflers? I just purchased a set of Jackpoint stands and all the other necessary tools (extensions, sockets, etc) to change out the plugs, so I am looking forward to getting started.

Beautiful, not much to say that hasn't been said. Good luck with your sale. Someone will be very happy and hopefully enjoy it more than just washing, waxing, and staring. lol

I am calling "CARS" quits for a bit.I am burnt out with them and need a break so that I can appreciate them again,LOL!
Spark plugs are a pain to do.....you will need and array of tools and a good imagination on how to use them,LOL! Getting to the bolts that hold the coil packs on are the hardest part....that and unclipping the wire plugs to the coil packs! I did not remove the mufflers.......but they are not the issue.The issue IS the brackets that the mufflers bolt to!
Good luck...I was 3.5 hours and that was with an oil change!

Thanks Ron......I WILL miss it.Ken(keninirvine) told me the story of his black cab when he sold that......and he even sent pictures of it being loaded up on the flatbed tow truck.It kinda put things into perspective for me!

I do hope someone will find the mods to their liking and actually enjoy the car for what it is.....after-all it IS just a car,LOL!

Cheers all,

Stacy

Stacy,

An immaculate car as always, and great job on the Turbo bumper conversion. Sad to see that you will be selling the car, but you have your reasons. I hope the car will go to a deserved owner who will take good care of it. Best wishes.
