I'll have one too. Yes, detail spray is a wonderful thing. I keep a mini spray bottle of Z-8 in my glove compartment - along with a polishing rag. Nothing but the best for my baby.

I did one of those last night... I had to move the car out of the garage to dig out a lawn mower... the car got covered in leaves while it was out there so I had to go blow them off.

nothing like a slow ride through the neighborhood followed by flooring it on the main road, taking it up to....errr the speed limit.... and doing a U turn to dust the car off

It's simple really.

Convince your lady friend to let me borrow it so I can visit my lady friend in it.

I hear ya! I have about 1/4 mile of gravel driveway before I get to pavement. After washing I just go reeeeeaaaaallllllllyyyyyy slow down the driveway. You could probably walk faster... plus silver helps. When i had the black Corvette I would stop at the end of the drive and use the california duster. Now I dont have to bother!

Number 3.... you can't ever drive the car again.... until its in a "not-perfect" state. that being said, you should ship it down to me and I'll drive it until its in the "not-perfect" state at which time you can come back and get it.

and dont worry, it wont end up like the last sky I took out...





lmao

Haha she's...a special friend.

We saw a yellow Sky Red Line while walking down the street in Columbus one time and she turned to me and said, "I WANT THAT CAR."

Ok, broke down and drove the car today. No incidents, dirt or even bugs.

Thanks for all of your encouragement.
