After almost a five month wait, my car made it here, and was in my hands Monday late afternoon. Frank S (the car) had to endure rain for his first full day on the roads, but it has cleared up here, and I took my lunch break as an opportunity to give him a bath, and snap some pictures.

Here they are, and now I can feel like a full member here.

Beautiful!!! Thank god you got the bonnet stripes!! I love it!

Congratulations!

myspeed · May 22nd, 2003, 01:53 AM

Lovely car, looks like your drive could do with a bit of a scrub down though - think I could see a speck of dust dangerously near the front offside wheel!!! ;-)))
Seriously, what a great setting for an S, lots of wide open roads. Have fun!

AidenL · May 22nd, 2003, 01:54 AM

That IS nice !

Congrats and good luck with it !

SilverGAGT · May 22nd, 2003, 02:00 AM

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

But I have to head out now and scrub the driveway....supposedly it's dirty.

KenL · May 22nd, 2003, 03:32 PM

STUNNING !

MINIMiller · May 22nd, 2003, 07:12 PM

Well congratulations!!!! Frank certainly is a smart looking beast

Have fun

SugarBelly · May 22nd, 2003, 07:33 PM

A beauty, SilverGAGT!

"Frank S," huh?

As in:
"Your eyes made skies blue again
What else could I do again?
Keep repeating through again
"I love you, I do love you"

I still recall the thrill, I guess that I always will
I hope 'twill never depart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart"
-Sinatra

enjoy!

Indi Blue/W with stripe is really awesome.

Maybe the picture showing the side of your MCS will look
better if you take the picture "not" against the sunlight.

SamJ · May 23rd, 2003, 03:34 AM

Very nice color combo...Congrats and enjoy!!

Yeah, I know, but for the most part, the sun was right overhead. Doesn't really leave for a great shot from any angle. Plus, these were quick shots after washing the car at lunch one day. Even working from home, I only get some much time for lunch.....and I wanted to eat.

Again, thanks all for the kind words, I plan to stick around and hopefully be posting pictures of my mods sometime soon.

MINImeat · May 23rd, 2003, 04:01 AM

You know, I get critical about which colors are best and then someone posts another beautiful picture and I realize they're all beautiful...
I think I'm sold on the white bits making any of 'em pop, though (except pure silver, of course).
Lovely car, SilverGAGT!

Lumspeed · May 23rd, 2003, 06:50 AM

Look's the ' BIZ '

Nice area you live in , bet the neighbour's are jealous !.

MiniMan7 · May 23rd, 2003, 07:32 AM
