97BlackAckCL Erie PA Ack Retrieval & Photoshoot Thread (pics unavailable temporarily)

Had to take a trek up to Erie PA to pick up my car after snapping the CV Joint at our meet.

https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...1#post11180961

Trip was long, I left work at 4 PM and didn't pull the CL into the garage until 11:40. My buddy had to ride up with me and drive my truck back, and we figured it would be a good time to take a couple shots of the car around town before we headed back. On our way back from the shop we saw a huge cemetary and an old motel that my buddy wanted to shoot at with his 35mm. My camera's just a 10MP point and shoot so I did my best. The only editing I did to these files is remove the license plate numbers. I figured since I had the stock hood back on it would be fun to do some shots, because the next shoot you guys see, the exterior will be a lot different.

Had to drive 2.5 hrs to get up to where the meet was and where my car snapped the axle. Gave my buddy plenty of time to snap some pics. If you just want to see the car, scroll down to the next post.

My friend Will, also known on AZ as the rim humper, dj'ing it up on his Iphone

Couple random shots he took on the road
Water beads ftw

Clear skies ahead

Finally there, Pittsburgh Rd. WTF?

I made the thread invisible while I posted the car pics, but for some reason when i changed it again, it only made the first post visable. Should be fixed now, never used that feature before

He's a good dude, he helped me do multiple suspension installs and uninstalls. I did a few photoshoots with his old tegs back in the day. This is why he's called the rim humper

These will be on VERY soon

There are car pics, hopefully they show up now

Dude I know, I've used this server for like 10 years, sucks that it's down. Figures I finally get some real sweet pics of my car and the server crashes just my luck. Finally go to a meet, snap an axle, yeah that's been my luck lately. Oh and I stripped the screw on my discontinued battery terminal so it's pretty much useless, FML
