"^time for u to get one too"

^ yeah. it came with the wheel. it was easier to put it on instead of having to cutting and tapping wires in the cruise control. and it didnt leave me any wires for audio control hanging out.

Interesting.........

The clock spring plugged right in to our wiring? If so, Im probably just going to order it instead of moving wires around.

picked up another CL-S couple of days ago. runs awesome.









All i did today was pulling, w/o the trunk or the bumper. a little bit more on Monday and then glue up the seams and some putty and it should be ready for paint.

I am glad that my car won't be going into the ether, it is kinda like it will live on in several cars.

nspec's car is about to get several major infusions of modded goodness!

look what came in today....




No not the lambo. Look below it.


other cars in the trailers: gallardo, that porsche in teh background, f430, and 2 rolls-royces.
I dont know what these guys were thinking picking up a car thats worth like a percent of the other cars in there.
but anyways, they delivered it very fast.
