Interesting, my Buddy is running colder Champions in his 05 GT (it's supercharged) and he loves them. BTW, I think the sticker on my 89 says 3200 pounds.

I just came in from doing a 1200/1500/2000 wet sand, then polish on the spot under my hood scoop. I'm so excited! I'm reluctant to keep going in case it's not 100% ready. I used the Meguiar's 105 as the polish... and I ordered some of the 7 to go over it by hand afterwards.

I'm about to jump off of this Verizon train. Comcast offered me 600 mbps service, and switching the phone from Verizon to them for 75 a month, plus the taxes and fees. Guaranteed price for 2 years. This is complete BS:

You know me.... can't help but "tinker". This took me about 5 minutes. I'll really dive in tomorrow. It's not perfect, but it looks damn good for what it is.

EDIT: I just figured out the price for the paint job. The primer, paint, clear, gun, and supplies cost me a grand total of 335 dollars. Not bad at all!

I got you beat by an hour. Only 4 hours for me last night. My kids were making all kinds of noises. Time to have a word with them.
