Just like the other member that got a nice compliment from a Viper owner I got one from an XLR-V today. My grandmothers doctor came out to see her and we live next door. He stopped by to see my father and I was outside working on the car. I had just finnished the seat and power steering hose and then washed the car as well as break out the chrome polish on the 10 spokes since I havent polished them in a year.
I had the cars nose up in the air again to clean off the bar oil I spilled on the hoses and support brace and I was all the way under it so he couldnt see me. He was walking up and I hear him stop behind the car and say very quietly "What a nice looking car."
I shout "Thanks" and he almost jumped out of his skin! :lol: He said he didnt see anyone out here and I startled him. :lol: I look over and see his V series and I love those cars allot and told him so.
He walks around to the front and sees the engine and like most people he thinks its some 500 ci monster cause of them huge ass heads. He goes on and on about how nice and clean the engine is and he didnt know Lincoln made a car like this (after I tell him about the engine). I let the car down so I could open the door and he was so earnestly impressed with the inside.
Blew him away when I told him the car is almost 13 years old. He said he really wants one and will let the wife have the Caddy. Now I was blown away!
That made me feel like king :q:q:q:q right there! He is driving Caddys flag ship and likes my old Lincoln better. :lol:
These cars are still kick ass cars to this day! I love the damn thing!
Just took her out for a victory lap. I cant believe how muchmore comfertable the seat is now that its welded. Also where the little support bar comes up on the lower cushion had rubbed through the seat pad and dug into the side of my leg. I just used some duct tape to rearrange the cushion a little then put the leather back on. Cant tell its been rigged at all and it is so much more comfertable now! :wrench
Did I tell you I love my car?
